The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) in armed conflict has outpaced the capacity of international humanitarian law (IHL) to adapt, particularly with the emergence of numerous AI-enhanced weapons, as demonstrated by the 2023-2025 Gaza War and the conflict in Ukraine since 2022. These weapons, characterized by their effectiveness and low cost, pose serious risks to respect for the fundamental principles of IHL, especially distinction, proportionality, and humanity. The weakness of existing legal frameworks, due to the outdated nature of relevant conventions, is also noteworthy, especially as new applications are accompanied by a growing decrease in human oversight, including in autonomous weapon systems. This makes proving criminal responsibility difficult due to the complexity of identifying the direct controller of AI applications.
