Correction to: Ensuring the exercise of human agency in AI-based military systems: concerns across the lifecycle
before the potential development of such systems all the way to post-use review.Each of the lifecycle stages raises manifold questions and challenges that various stakeholders need to address in their efforts to sustain and strengthen human agency.The paper highlights twelve key technical, ethical, legal, and strategic concerns across different stages of the lifecycle.These sets of concerns illustrate the value of developing more fine-grained thinking around applied lifecycle models.We conclude that ensuring the exercise of human agency in the use of AI-based systems in military contexts will require careful and reflective decision-making around questions and challenges among the stakeholders involved.
