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.

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.
