Maqedonci: Artificial intelligence in warfare must not replace human responsibility

Kosovo’s Minister of Defence, Ejup Maqedonci, took part in the panel “The Battle for Democracy in the AI Age”, held as part of the Warsaw Security Forum, where the implications of artificial intelligence for defence, political processes and the strengthening of democracy were discussed.

In a statement about his participation, Maqedonci focused on the potential of this technology, as well as the long-term threats that the rapid advancement of military technologies could bring.

He stressed that the use of artificial intelligence in combat operations must not remove humans from the decision-making process. According to him, ultimate responsibility must always remain in human hands.

Maqedonci said that at the forum he also spoke about the impact of artificial intelligence on political decision-making and society, as well as the challenges that such developments pose to democratic stability.

He described his participation in the panel as an opportunity to discuss these issues within the broader debate on the resilience of democracy.
