ethical issues that may arise from developing such technology. Furthermore,
because private industry and companies are making these technologies, a new type
of ARMS RACE is being created, where the motivation to have the latest and most

will lead to advancements that will benefit mankind. It seems that an arms race
perpetuated by these reasons speeds up the rate of the race much quicker than
previous reasons.
