Lethal Autonomous Weapon Systems and Automation Bias

Gökhan Güneysu — Wed, 25 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0700

Autonomy in weapon systems is already a genuine concern. States try to come up with their own definitions of these systems and pay utmost effort to impose their own understanding of these systems upon other states. For a fairly high number of states barring a total ban on such weapons would be the ideal solution; however, such states that are anxious about the increase in autonomy in war-making capabilities, as adopts a second-best scenario to contain risks created by the deployment of such systems. To this end, placing them under meaningful human control emerges as an important political and legal objective. The author believes that placing autonomous weapons under human supervision, despite its initial promise, will yield negative results. This is due to the fact that humans tend rather to be too willing to follow the solutions generated by autonomous systems. First observed in other industries of civilian nature like aviation or health, automation bias has the potential to negate most if not all of supervision measures expected to ensure proper implementation of international humanitarian law.

Trial mechanism as the only procedure in resolving election administrative violations is a mechanism that is not in accordance with the concept of law enforcement in administrative law that uses not only the trial mechanism but also direct sanctions. Therefore, the concept of law enforcement in these violations needs to be redesigned, to be in line with the administrative law and be more effective and easier to implement. This study examined the concept of law enforcement in administrative law as a conceptual and theoretical basis in redesigning the concept of law enforcement in election administrative violations. It used legal research methods with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The results of this study recommend a new concept in resolving election administrative violations by looking at the legal subjects who commit violations and the characteristics of the violations. For the violations committed by non-officials, the law enforcement is sufficient to use direct sanctions. Meanwhile, for the violations committed by officials, if they cause direct losses, it must use a trial mechanism. But, if the violation is only limited to non-compliance with the legislation and does not cause harm to anyone, direct sanctions can be executed. Hence, it is necessary to change the mechanism for resolving election administrative violations as stipulated in the Election Law.

The terms "Default" and "Fraud" and/or “Embezzlement” are often interchanged without clarity of meaning in many discussion forums, both oral and written. This confusion can be seen from the many court decisions that acquit defendants from prosecution which have permanent legal force. The public often hears that law enforcers carry out criminalization, such as witnesses becoming suspects, suspects becoming defendants and so on by shifting the civil legal action of Default to criminal act of Fraud and/or Embezzlement. Using 'criminalization' and 'criminalized' in this article is considered inappropriate, so it has been replaced by 'criminalizing' and 'criminalized'. If there is an action to shift the civil legal act of Default into a criminal act of Fraud and/ or Embezzlement, so from a human rights perspective, it is against the law. By using normative legal research methods, this paper examines how to differentiate civil legal acts of Default from criminal acts of Fraud and/or Embezzlement, how to apply civil compensation in cases where there are already criminal legal remedies, and what is the legal and human rights perspective when criminalization occurs. This paper uses a statutory approach and a case approach. The results show: First, there is a real difference between civil legal acts of Default and criminal acts of Fraud and/ or Embezzlement; Second, the application of compensation can be carried out through criminal and civil procedural law mechanisms; Finally, criminalizing civil legal acts into criminal acts is a form of violation of human rights.
