Hello,

Especially if you are an AI researcher in Canada, please consider and sign
this letter asking the Canadian government to urgently address the
challenge of lethal autonomous weapons (often called “killer robots”) and
to take a leading position against Autonomous Weapon Systems on the
international stage at the upcoming UN meetings in Geneva.

The leading signatories of this letter are Ian Kerr
<https://www.facebook.com/ian.kerr?fref=mentions>, Geoff Hinton, Richard S.
Sutton <https://www.facebook.com/richard.s.sutton.7?fref=mentions>, Doina
Precup <https://www.facebook.com/doina.precup?fref=mentions> and myself.

Let's work together towards a socially responsible and ethically grounded
use of AI.
