The relevance of this study is determined by the lack of international legal instruments to regulate the use of innovative technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), in the military sphere. Rapid technological progress, especially in the field of military technologies, creates new challenges that require the development of legal mechanisms capable of adequately responding to potential threats and ensuring global security. This problem is exacerbated by the lack of uniform international standards for the military use of AI, leading to legal uncertainty and a dearth of harmonized rules. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current legislation of the People's Republic of China (PRC) in the field of military AI, with a focus on the draft of AI Regulation Law, considered by the author in a military context. The study aims to identify the advantages and limitations, as well as fragmentation and uncertainty in the present legal regulation of military AI in the PRC. The results of the analysis show that the existing norms of Chinese law are characterized by insufficient elaboration, which may lead to legal conflicts when interpreting and applying these norms in the context of international obligations and standards. This emphasizes the need to integrate national approaches into global legal mechanisms to create universal standards consistent with international principles for regulating the military use of AI. The practical significance of the study lies in identifying the prospects for the formation of a comprehensive legal framework that will ensure the lawful use of AI in armed conflicts, considering international obligations and norms of humanitarian law, contributing to the strengthening of international security.
