Smarter guns for dumber gun control

Last week I saw two articles about "smarter guns": an op-ed titled "Use AI to stop carnage", and a comment to that op-ed asking "Can smarter guns end the gun control debate? The author of the op-ed is S. Bringsjord, professor in a departments of Cognitive Science and Computer Science and an expert in logic and philosophy, specializing in AI and reasoning. The comment to his proposal says he is "comfortable speaking with media and available to speak about the concept of ethical guns". I look forward to reading his answers to my perplexities here. Those smart weapons would use ethical artificial intelligence to know, in any circumstance, that they have "no business being used anytime soon".
