More than 100 leading robot experts have urged the United Nations (UN)to take steps to prevent the development of 'killer army robots'.

In a letter involving multi-billionaire Tesla founder and leader Elon Musk and founder of Google DeepMind, Mustafa Suleyman, it says that 'deadly autonomous technology' is a dangerous 'Pandora's box' and that we are racing against time .

The 116 experts asked for a prohibition on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in weapons development.

"Once developed, armed conflict will rise to an unprecedented scale, and can sped up much faster than human beings can," the letter said.

"It could be a weapon for terror, a weapon used by terrorists and despots against ordinary citizens, and weapons that are hacked to behave in an undesirable way," he added.

what are the killer army robots ?

The killer army robots is a fully autonomous or autonomous weapon that can choose and target the target without human intervention. Until now the robotrobot was not there but technological advances made it possible to materialize in the near future.

Those who agree on robotic army soldiers call that current war legislation can be sufficient to overcome the problems that might arise if the robots were deployed in war assignments.

According to them what can be done now is a moratorium, not a direct ban.

However, those who oppose its use call this type of robot a threat to humanity and hence killer robots and other 'autonomous' killing machines should be banned.

There was an urgent tone in the message from the technology leader, a warning that "our time to act is not long at all."

"Once this Pandora's box is opened, it will be difficult to close again."Experts ask what they perceive as "morally wrong" technology to be added to the list of forbidden weapons under the UN Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW).

The possible ban on developing 'killer army robots' technology has been discussed earlier by several UN committees.In the past year, more than 1,000 technology experts, scientists and researchers wrote a warning letter about the dangers of stand-alone weapons.
The signatories include Stephen Hawking, Apple founder Steve Wozniak and Elon Musk.
