    If war only involves robots and and AI, at least no humans will be killed …right?

    Edit; I thought that it was obvious I was being sarcastic.

    Korea has terminators that know karate. Autonomous killer drones have been in the testing phase for a few years now.

    Someone even made Faro Plague machines that consume biomass for fuel.

      Israel is using AI for planning, for “analyzing” all the photos and data they collect, and for assistance selecting targets for their drone strikes.

      Ukraine has drones that can do the last mile themselves (= selecting their target and explode in a place that makes the most damage), to prevent Russia from it working by jamming the signal

    I think there was a story I read, years ago, about a computer being used to identify and destroy AA platforms in a simulated war exercise. Back then (back in my day) it wasn’t called AI, it was a machine learning program. But anyway, the computer was scored based on how many targets it successfully destroyed. However, it could only engage targets when a clear to fire authorization was given by a human.
    Eventually then endeavor was abandoned because the computer figured out it was humans preventing it from getting a higher score. So, mathematically it made sense for the machine to kill its handlers so as to grant itself fire-at-will capabilities.
    It may have been a sci-fi piece and not a real event. It becomes more and more difficult to tell now a days.
