Why a New Military AI Treaty Is Legally Needed but Politically Unlikely

Original: Asia-Pacific Journal Series – The De Jure Necessity and De Facto Improbability of Establishing a New Military AI Treaty

A new analysis in an Asia-Pacific journal series, published with the Lieber Institute at West Point, argues that international law formally requires a dedicated treaty governing military uses of artificial intelligence, yet the political conditions for negotiating one are presently absent. The piece examines the gap between the legal necessity of regulating AI in warfare and the practical improbability that states will agree to binding rules.

Why now: Growing military use of AI in conflicts is renewing debate over whether international law adequately governs autonomous weapons.
