Good, this idea that all weapons are evil is an insane luxury belief.

Weapons inherently aren’t evil, which is why everyone has kitchen knives. People use weapons to do evil.

The problem with building AI weapons is that eventually it will be in the hands of people who are morally bankrupt and therefore will use them to do evil.

Much as it is the case with guns, why is the "problem" the tools or provider of the tools and not the user of the tools?

Depends if next years gun gets up and shoots you in the head on its own accord.
