MODERATORS
Before they made the knife missile, I expected someone to mount the robotic sniper array on a Predator.
But robot murder dogs are just another drone if they're controlled by an operatons team.
We cross the crazy sci-fi line when they're able to autonomously select and attack targets based on an algo.
Remember when they were surprised that drone operators also got ptsd?
The Drones used today already using AI/algos in order to finish their mission even if for example the connection to the pilot is lost.
