Overview
Emerging and disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), synthetic biology and quantum technologies are having a profound impact on security. Efforts to establish international principles of responsible use of these technologies are gathering pace. This chapter focuses on those efforts in three priority technology areas: AI, cyberspace and outer space.
It was an important year for the governance of AI at the international level in at least three respects (see section I). First, the group of governmental experts on autonomous weapon systems (AWS) under the 1981 Certain Conventional Weapons Convention (CCW) adopted language that could form the basis of a two-tiered regulation on AWS. The CCW also adopted a mandate that could mark a potential endpoint for the discussion on AWS in the context of the CCW. Simultaneously, states approved a new discussion track under the auspices of the United Nations General Assembly that could serve as a basis for a future ad hoc process to complement or replace the CCW process.
