Robots use in military raises safety concerns:
Introduction
From the past few decades, robots use becomes very popular and common in military services. Robots are able to do some risky jobs which human beings are unable to do. There are many benefits of using robots compare to humans. Humans get tired easily during the war but machines do not get tired. They don’t know what fear of death is, never close their eyes nor hide like humans, and they can fight for several days therefore the robots are more capable of getting success in the dangerous environment. Despite numerous advantages there are some cons of the robots use in the military like; robot is not able to distinguish between enemy and innocent citizens. When coming to security, robots can also be hacked by the enemy and can be used again friendly troops and the cost of creating them which is very huge.

What if you find a malfunction? Imagine these malfunctions get them to start killing soldiers, or worse, innocent people. If robots only fought their unique kind then there could be no problem, but until there's a way to accomplish this, or if there is certainly even a way to do it, it can be too risky. Robots mustn't be used to battle; they will not really save lives nevertheless eventually help cause deaths. They react poorly to unexpected circumstances, which is what war is all about. A robot can’t adjust to radically different situations, different from what it was programmed to expect. If you maintain control of the robot at a distance, such as by radio commands, those commands can be intercepted, blocked, or even altered, to work against the
