Wallace defends AI weapons

Contents
Sam Wallace, a former US army officer, has an interesting piece criticizing our open letter suggestion as “unrealistic and dangerous”. I just wrote a response together with Stuart Russell and Toby Walsh. Although we disagree with Wallace’s arguments, we’re grateful that he published them so that we can get them discussed and analyzed out in the open. Please join the discussion in the comment field here or at the Kurzweil AI site!
