Digital Battlefronts: Rethinking Legal Frontiers in Cyber warfare and AI Conflicts

Cyberspace and artificial intelligence (AI) have been increasingly used in international conflicts without sufficient regulations, raising concerns over their unchecked impact. Although authoritative texts like the Tallinn Manual provide guidance for governing cyberspace, the absence of explicit International Humanitarian Law (IHL) rules tailored to cyber operations remains a significant concern.The current legal frameworks are insufficient to effectively regulate armed conflicts in cyberspace.The article discusses how cyber-attacks are regulated by the existing body of laws such as the United Nations Charter, International humanitarian Law (IHL), international treaties. The UN General Assembly global Conference on Cyberspace was organised to address, Whether the human moderators and commanders can be held responsible for AI-driven violations under the current IHL framework?. This paper explores the cyber attacks that are global in nature using various cyber case studies that are state sponsored or not state sponsored. This paper concludes that there is a need for new international conventions or legislations to effectively deal with cyberwarfare in international space.
