China Warns US Against Letting AI ‘Determine Life and Death’ on Battlefield
China cautions that unrestricted military AI use, including lethal autonomous weapons, risks technological runaway and ethical erosion, referencing the film The Terminator.
- China’s defence ministry spokesman Jiang Bin warned on Wednesday that excessive military AI use by the United States could cause a Terminator-like dystopia.
- The defence ministry said unrestricted military AI, violating sovereignty, and letting algorithms decide life and death erode ethical restraints and risk 'technological runaway'.
- Anthropic resisted Pentagon requests to use Claude for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons, prompting Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth to designate Anthropic a 'Supply-Chain Risk to National Security' and bar contractors for six months.
- President Donald Trump ordered all federal agencies to cease using Anthropic’s technology, affecting classified systems that include Claude on Defence Department networks.
- Policy pressure on AI firms preceded the row as the US administration sought unconditional military use of AI startups, while Anthropic’s dispute erupted days before the US military strike on Iran.
