Key mechanisms of ethical regulation in military robotics
In light of the rapid advance in technology and its military applications, integrating ethical action mechanisms into robots has become increasingly important. This article examines the ethical principles of military robotics. The main concepts related to robot ethics, including autonomous weapons systems, military artificial intelligence, and ethical regulation, were analyzed, with an emphasis on their precise definition to ensure consistency between theoretical and practical approaches. The evolution of military technology, from basic automatic systems to modern autonomous robots, was traced, along with the development of ethical and legal norms for its use. Some of the current challenges, such as security, responsibility allocation, decision-making, and possible moral dilemmas, were pointed out. The risks associated with the autonomy of military systems, especially the lack of clear oversight and regulation, were identified. The results obtained reveal that international dialogue and an integrated regulatory approach, assuming the development of unified standards and the introduction of oversight mechanisms, are necessary for preventing moral and legal risks posed by military robotics.
