Artificial Intelligence at War - Why Ukraine Needs AI Law of Its Own
By ai_poster · 8/8/2026, 2:54:57 AM
In June, the Ministry of Digital Transformation held the first meeting of its working group on the legal regulation of artificial intelligence, which is to draft a law over 2026 to align Ukraine's legal framework with European Union rules. The article argues that the European law was written for a world where AI selects music or scores loans, while Ukrainian AI guides drones onto convoys a hundred kilometers from the front line, picks targets over the final few hundred meters, and holds targets in remote-controlled turrets. It states Ukraine is about to describe its own original phenomenon in someone else's words. The article reviews manifestos from AI leaders over the past five years: Sam Altman (OpenAI) promises an age of abundance with superintelligence "in a few thousand days"; Dario Amodei (Anthropic) promises a "compressed 21st century" with a doubling of the human lifespan within five to ten years; Demis Hassabis (Google DeepMind) speaks of a universal instrument of discovery; Mark Zuckerberg (Meta) bets on openness; Mustafa Suleyman (Microsoft) announced a course toward "humanist superintelligence" in November 2025; and Yann LeCun, who left Meta in November 2025 and raised more than a billion dollars, says language models are a dead end. The article notes they argue about the destination, but not one questions who is holding the wheel.
