The US State Department is urging China and Russia to declare that decisions regarding the deployment of nuclear weapons will be made by humans and not artificial intelligence (AI). The department is concerned about the potential risks associated with AI use in critical military decision-making, as there is a fear that automation and speed could lead to unintended escalations or miscalculations. The US has already made a strong commitment to this principle and believes that it is a vital norm of responsible behavior. The State Department has previously discussed AI risks and safety with Chinese officials and has endorsed a political declaration on responsible uses of military AI.
