Journal of Military Ethics, Volume 22, Number 2, October 2023, page: 118-128Summary: Autonomous weapons are systems that, once activated, can identify, select and engage targets by themselves. Scharre (2018. Army of None: Autonomous Weapons and the Future of War. New York: Norton) has given a definition of autonomy based on three dimensions: the automatized tasks, the relationship with the human user and the sophistication of the machine’s decision-making process. Based on this definition of autonomy, this article provides an overview of systematic biases that may occur in each of these three dimensions. Before the deployment of autonomous systems in war it is important to know how various biases can affect the functioning of the machines and how these biases can be compensated for.
