Opened inkscape for the first time and put together something now that these ai companies are just flat out saying that we don’t deserve ram.

The fact that AI obfuscates responsibility doesn’t actually change its role. AI trained to pick targets are obviously weapons.
They’re just autonomous weapons, or maybe more similar to mines. Set it and forget it! If they walk on the mine, that’s their fault.
My understanding of the way theyre using it is that it is not directly in charge of munitions.
Which is to say, the AI does not fire the missle, a human fires the missle. That human is (theoretically) able to dodge accountability because they just pretend to believe what the AI says is completely accurate.
Imagine a sniper rifle with a thermal scope. The scope is detachable, it can be used without the gun, but not as a weapon. The gun can be used without the scope, as a weapon, and has other methods of target acquisition available (iron sights if nothing else).
When you look through the thermal scope you see a heat signiature, but it obfuscates if the target is an enemy or a civilian. So using the heat scope allows you to pretend that you thought the civilians you murdered were actually enemy combatants.
A mine doesn’t need a human to detonate it, and the powers that be are not (yet) psychotic enough to give control of the weapons systems to the AI.
I’m still not sure how you’re getting “doesn’t count as a weapon” from that.
A thermal scope that obfuscates the target sure as shit seems like it’s a weapon designed to kill civilians.
The scope is not a weapon, it doesn’t have to be attached to the gun, and can be used non-violently without a gun.
The gun does not need the scope to function, and the gun essentially only functions violently.
Do you think a plate is food?
A gun needs a bullet to function. It can not be used as a weapon without a bullet.
Therefore, guns are not weapons. Guns are plates.
Aight, you’re either a troll or incredibly dense, so I’m out
