Nowadays, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important, and this is no exception in the military, because, thanks to machine-learning algorithms, computers can now perform complex tasks semi-independently. In military operations, the leaders are forced to risk, and in some cases sacrifice, human lives. The question arises as to what happens when command decisions are made by AI. The author has already addressed the issue of the military application of AI in several publications. In this paper, the social and ethical issues involved in military applications and other human aspects of AI have been some of the subjects of the investigation. The subsequent sections summarise the use of AI, for military purposes in particular, from the perspective of its potential impact on democracy. The article concludes with an overview of the international state of regulation of AI, without claiming to be exhaustive, but with a particular focus on the rules governing military use.

Sztuczna inteligencja jest współcześnie coraz ważniejsza w prawie każdym aspekcie działalności ludzkiej i wojsko nie stanowi tu wyjątku. Dzięki algorytmom uczenia maszynowego komputery są w stanie wykonywać zadania wojskowe. Ale podczas operacji wojskowych dowódcy nierzadko ryzykują, a w niektórych sytuacjach poświęcają życie ludzkie. Pojawia się zatem pytanie, co dzieje się, gdy decyzje podejmowane są przez sztuczną inteligencję. Problematykę militarnego zastosowania sztucznej inteligencji autor poruszał już w kilku publikacjach, w niniejszym artykule skupiając swą uwagę na kwestiach społecznych i etycznych związanych ze stosowaniem sztucznej inteligencji przez wojsko, a także prezentując cywilny punkt widzenia. W kolejnych częściach artykułu przedstawiono wykorzystanie sztucznej inteligencji, zwłaszcza do celów militarnych, z perspektywy jej potencjalnego wpływu na demokrację. Artykuł kończy się przeglądem wybranych międzynarodowych regulacji użycia sztucznej inteligencji, który uwzględnia przede wszystkim zasady jej wykorzystania do celów wojskowych.
