AI warfare: What will be the cost of saving lives?

Hello to all hive users 🤗❤️🙏
Hope you all are healthy and doing great in your life🙂

Today, artificial intelligence is being used everywhere, and people are applying it in numerous applications. Artificial intelligence has made things much easier and performs tasks better and faster. Some tasks that used to take hours can now be completed in minutes, flawlessly. I often watch videos from other countries where I see robots serving food in restaurants, or making food, and many other videos where robots are performing tasks that were once done by humans. In large factories, many tasks are performed by robots, and these tasks are done with great accuracy and precision, which is why they are used. Robots are also used in the medical field, especially in surgery, because it requires extreme precision and accuracy, and while a human hand might make mistakes, robots perform the tasks perfectly. Now let's talk about the main topic: the use of robots and artificial intelligence in warfare. If you hear this for the first time, you might think it's a great idea because the biggest advantage would be that soldiers would no longer lose their lives in battle, as robots would fight instead, thus eliminating casualties. However, if we delve deeper into this topic, several points emerge, and I would like to present some of the main points to you.

The biggest danger is that any country that adopts this kind of technology will completely lose its sense of fear. By fear, I mean the fear a country's leader has of losing the lives of their soldiers. You've seen that sometimes, when a leader feels that their soldiers won't be able to win a battle, they withdraw their troops because of the risk to their soldiers' lives. Sometimes, they don't even send them into battle at all because they know it could result in many casualties. They make these decisions to save lives. But if the leaders of a country get their hands on this kind of technology, their fear will disappear, and then wars will start over trivial matters, which could lead to widespread unrest in society.

When robots fight each other, it could lead to a situation where the war never ends. Such conflicts between robots would also be incredibly expensive. When humans fight, they need rest, which is why wars eventually come to a halt. However, when robots fight, they won't tire, and this could lead to wars that never end and potentially spiral out of human control.

The third point is that you can teach a robot to fight, but you can't teach it to distinguish between friend and foe. There's a possibility that it could become a threat to its own people because artificial intelligence doesn't always work with 100% perfection, and malfunctions and errors are bound to occur. These robots don't have the capacity to reason or the ability to differentiate between right and wrong, so sending them into battle would not be a wise decision. Deploying robots in warfare could disrupt world peace, because when you're surrounded by a war zone, you know how much fear there is, as anything can happen at any moment.

Using robots in warfare may save soldiers' lives, but it could also create several problems that are detrimental to society. It could introduce new types of challenges to society that might be even more dangerous than those we face now.
Technology should be used only up to a certain point; beyond that, it can create many problems.
