HKK-Hackers: Lethal Autonomous Weapons and Asimov’s Three Laws

Abstract

This paper presents our educational activities focused on the themes of esport, programming and artificial intelligence at the Károly Kratochvil Military Secondary School and Student Hostel and our planned military research program for students that is partially based on our experiences from these activities. An esport study circle for the military high school students was held at the University of Debrecen in the second semester of 2018/2019. It was called HKK-Hackers, similarly to the esport department of DEAC which is called DEAC-Hackers. The main element of the planned open source military research program is the examination of the compatibility of the lethal autonomous weapons and the spirit of Asimov’s laws.
