⚠️ Digital dehumanisation is not an abstract concern - it's happening right now in conflicts around the world.
Handing targeting decisions to machines strips people of their humanity. Victims are reduced to data points, while survivors have no one to hold accountable.
This week at the informal exchanges on AI in the military at the UN 🇺🇳, our campaigners are calling on states to act urgently to stop and prevent digital dehumanisation and automated harm and ensure meaningful human control over the use of force.
🗣️ Stay tuned for updates from campaigners in Geneva
"The rise of unregulated AI and autonomy in warfare in ongoing conflicts have been used to devastating humanitarian effects." – our Executive Director @nicolevanrooijen.bsky.social #PopeLeo
“Our main concern is that this is happening before specific rules are in place to make sure there is always meaningful human control in the use of force and life and death decisions aren’t delegated to machines” – @elizabethminor.bsky.social

The need to safeguard humanity from dehumanising technology that, as #PopeLeo rightly identified, “reduc[e] victims to data”, is needed now, more than ever.
