I mean… that is another I Did A Thing video (the knife missile is Backyard/Backdoor Scientist). Well, I Did A Thing, Michael Reeves, random ass kids, etc.
Gun+Computer Vision = Autonomous Sentry Turret. Reeves and Aleks made things “harder” by trying to specifically identify faces. But it doesn’t take much to realize that shooting at anything identified as a human approaching on an active battlefield is a LOT easier. And will likely be necessary as more and more “C4 duct taped to a drone” attacks are used against airfields and the like.
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.
