San Francisco reverses its decision to allow police to use robots equipped with lethal weapons.
San Francisco has reversed its decision to authorise police to use robots equipped with lethal weapons.
The measure would have allowed the San Francisco Police Department to kill suspects with robots in extreme situations. Dr Catherine Connolly, from the group Stop Killer Robots, told the BBC the move was a "slippery slope" that could distance humans from killing. In a secondary vote, usually reserved to rubber-stamp board decisions, they decided to overturn their vote.Police have argued that the robots would only be used in extreme circumstances.
