[governance] When Machines Kill

[Sylvia Caras]

This seems to me a subset of the governance and standards question,
and my sense of unintended consequences of software is stronger than
this author's.

"While complex robots and drones may not have much, or any, human
input at the operational stage, their responses to visual and other
stimuli are pre-determined through a series of programs and
algorithms."
