It’s possible to be critical of Israel’s approach without being antisemitic, or as you put it, “scapegoating the Jews”.

Remote controlled munitions, “less than lethal” or not, are deeply concerning no matter who operates them.

On the topic of safety of LLMs, from the discussion of the study:

“In one report [25], over 13% of the cases resulted in moderate to severe injuries with surgical intervention being required in 8% of the cases and another 18% sustaining a traumatic brain injury. ”

Not something I’m keen to see used anywhere. Much less in a robotic deployment situation.

If killer robots are inevitable, it makes sense to start with less than lethal robots. Just change the weapons or ammo.
