Nah this is a bad idea. Isreal already doing that and most the targets are innocent humans. Plus we are training AI to attack humans as being an OK thing to do. |
Drones are scary but unfortunately also the future of warfare, cheap ass drones have crippled a full fledged Navy, they've taken out million dollar modern tanks, they've wiped out infantry units, they've taken out critical infrastructure, etc. I get your concern but Russia will also likely be working on this stuff and whoever cracks the code of avoiding electronic warfare first will quickly go to having a major advantage on the battlefield, the AI purpose here is to avoid EW. The drone would be launched and piloted by a human to about a mile before their target. At that point, AI would take over, guiding the drone to its eventual target and making it harder for Russia to jam any signals back to the pilot. 
In addition, if the UK is involved along with other countries, it will probably have extremely strict usage considering how many restrictions the West already enforces on Ukraine, we have restrictions that they can't use our weapons on Russia, that they can't use cluster munitions near any populated areas, etc. It's also a different war than that in Israel/Gaza. Firstly, it's a different environment, the vast majority of the Ukraine/Russia war is in open fields, forested areas, away from city populations and even a lot of these Ukrainian cities were largely evacuated, meanwhile Israel/Gaza is more of an urban war, Gaza is a tightly condensed population and Palestinians have been unable to flee, I imagine the majority of these drones will be used in the actual frontlines. Secondly, targets don't automatically mean humans, they could input the oil refinery as a target, or as the picture depicts, a tank as a target, Ukraine using an AI drone to blow up a tank in the middle of a combat field far away from a city should have little chance of going rogue, flying off for miles and then picking out a random human target to go kill. Finally, just because Israel doesn't care about civilian casualties, doesn't mean Ukraine won't. Ukraine is fighting for its country and thus has more reason to be more careful, Israel is fighting to exterminate a country, like Russia, so they don't care about drones killing civilians, they don't care about Palestinians because they aren't Israelis, Ukraine will care about Ukrainians. Could pose a problem if they use the drones inside of Russia but the West already flipped their shit at Ukraine assassinating people inside of Russia, I can't imagine an oil refinery input having much risk or a command building and I don't see them doing much individual human targeting and EW already kills civilians when drones get jammed, fall out the sky instead of their intended target and explode on a civilian. |
