An urgent joint appeal issued Tuesday warned that the international community is approaching a point where machine-led combat systems can operate without human oversight. The United Nations and the Red Cross identified a critical need for a legal framework to govern the development of AI-driven weaponry to prevent the independent selection of targets in conflict zones.

Both groups urged global governments to establish enforceable international regulations to ensure that human control is maintained over the use of lethal force.
