There's an awful lot of fear around AI right now that I think could be solved by showing people just how ineffective the more recent AI developments have been at solving most real problems. That being said, it's good the UN is starting discussions around it early on, in case it develops to the point where fully autonomous weapon systems can be widely deployed and relied on. It does feel like only a matter of time before we reach that point, as much as I'd like for it not to happen.
