Autonomous systems based on artificial intelligence are playing an increasingly meaningful role in everyday life in a variety of fields, including industry, medicine, the economy, and security. Because they are computerized, these systems are exposed to coding errors, which may lead to incorrect decision making and the execution of unwanted actions. In addition, they are vulnerable to cyber attacks that may harm or completely suspend their activity. This article examines the risks posed to autonomous systems as a component of the arms race among the powers and discusses policy steps to contend with these threats at the national level.
