    Autonomous weapons: Palantir, Airbus engineers seek to calm ‘killer robot’ fears

    Our Fellow Tammy Mackenzie was recently interviewed by FRANCE 24’s Tech24 segment to share her thoughts on AI in Autonomous Weapons Systems (AWS).

    The segment looks into the ethical implications of deploying AI in military operations and discusses the critical need for regulatory frameworks that ensure these technologies are used responsibly. As the conversation around AI evolves, we must engage with these topics. Properly balancing military pragmatism and AI ethics is among the most significant global challenges today.

    How do you think we can achieve a balance between innovation and responsibility?

    Preconference workshop for International AI Policy Conference at MILA.

    Aula Fellows presented a pre-workshop on asking hard questions on AI. Participants practiced identifying key chaarceristics of hard questions and discussing them together. During the conference that followed, several participants stood and asked hard questions, and several presenters were very happy to receive support and feedback on their most pernicious problems. We were able to build on existing collaborations and continue with or bridge-building between all the people and the people in decision-making roles on AI in society.
