AI and War

Mattis Kuhn and Leon-Etienne Kühr recently joined the AI Lab at HfG Offenbach. For tomorrow they have invited Christian Heck, PhD student at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne, as a geust speaker. His lecture introduces us to the relatively recent history of technological rationalisation of war through data-driven predictions and decision-making. The starting point is the recently published position paper Targeted?Killing, in which experts in the field of AI & Unmanned Systems call for the outlawing of targeted killing practices with AI-supported systems such as “Lavender” as war crimes. An evning about Intelligent systems and transparent battlefields.
