Let me tell you how it all happened... Fakhrizadeh was driving along a rural road on the outskirts of Tehran, accompanied by his wife and a security team. Suddenly, a pickup truck parked on the side of the road sprang into action. Nobody got out of it. Not a single shot was fired. Instead, an automated machine gun mounted on the vehicle began firing with deadly precision, hitting only Fakhrizadeh. Do you know what's most frightening? The system was so precise that his wife, who was inches away, wasn't hit.
The shots were fired from a weapon equipped with an #ArtificialIntelligence system, operated remotely via satellite. There were no humans on the scene. Everything was controlled remotely, probably by agents who had never been near the scientist. Iran has accused Israel of being responsible for the attack, but the Israeli government has never confirmed or denied the operation.
This case made me think about the impacts of #IA on weapons systems. Just imagine: we're talking about machines capable of making lethal decisions without any direct human intervention. This opens up a Pandora's box of ethical and security problems.
What scares me most about this kind of action is how much it trivializes the use of lethal force. If a country can eliminate its enemies at the push of a button, without exposing soldiers to danger, what's to stop it from starting new conflicts? What's more, we're talking about a technology that can be replicated and improved by any nation or group with sufficient resources.
This case of Fakhrizadeh's murder shows us that the future of war has arrived. And frankly, that worries me. Without strict international regulation, we are heading towards a scenario in which anyone's life can be taken by an
invisible machine, controlled from thousands of kilometers away. It is no exaggeration to say that we are facing one of humanity's greatest challenges this century.
If we want to avoid a future dominated by killer robots and invisible wars, we need to act now. It is urgent to create international laws that limit the use of autonomous weapons systems and ensure that #artificialintelligence is used for good, not destruction.
What do you think? Are we ready to face this future? I confess that writing this text has made me even more worried about the direction technology could take if there is no effective control.

Ethical and security challenges: where will we end up?
This case made me think about the impacts of #IA on weapons systems. Just imagine: we're talking about machines capable of making lethal decisions without any direct human intervention. This opens up a Pandora's box of ethical and security problems.
- Who is to blame? - If a machine makes a mistake and kills the wrong person, who should be held responsible? The remote operator? The government that authorized the operation? The developer of the technology? There is no simple answer.
- Risk of fatal errors - No matter how advanced #technology is, there are always risks of failure. A wrong identification can result in the death of innocent civilians. And when we're talking about AI, one mistake can multiply on a global scale.
- Invisible wars - With autonomous weapons, countries can carry out surgical strikes without leaving physical traces. This makes war less visible, easier to hide from public opinion and even more difficult to control.
- Technological proliferation - With the rapid evolution of technology, imagine what could happen if terrorist groups or less responsible governments started using systems like this. The world would enter a new era of #conflict, where machines kill by their own decision.
The real danger of this new era
