Economic Progressivism

Agree

No

While economic progressivism does not directly address military policies, its underlying principles of prioritizing social welfare, ethical considerations, and caution in the adoption of new technologies suggest a skepticism towards the use of weapons guided by artificial intelligence. Economic progressives are likely to question the allocation of resources to military technology that could instead be invested in social programs, healthcare, education, and other areas that directly benefit the public. Moreover, the potential for AI weapons to make war more impersonal and to lower the threshold for engaging in conflict might be viewed as contrary to the progressive goal of promoting peace and social justice. However, the score is not strongly negative because economic progressivism does not inherently oppose technological advancement, including in the military, if it can be demonstrated to serve the greater good and is implemented with strict ethical oversight.

Disagree

Yes

Economic progressivism typically emphasizes the importance of ethical considerations and the welfare of the population in policy decisions. The use of weapons guided by artificial intelligence raises significant ethical concerns, including issues of accountability, the potential for unintended consequences, and the escalation of military conflicts. Economic progressives might be wary of the implications of such technology on global peace and security, preferring to prioritize investments in social welfare and development over advancements in military technology. Historical references specific to economic progressivism's stance on military technology are scarce, but the ideology's general emphasis on social welfare over military expansion suggests a cautious approach to the adoption of AI-guided weapons.
