    Well, a rocket runs automated navigation system and kills the target (if successful). AI is no different.

    It came a while back. It just took a while to get it working in a fighter jet. They had to start with terrifying doggy killbots first.

    Didn't that robot dog that one of the PDs in the US tested got destroyed within weeks?

  I’m pretty sure this was the plot of the movie Stealth (2005) starring Josh Lucas, Jamie Foxx and Jessica Biel.

    This was a plot of a lot of movies. And TV shows. Most famously, The Terminator (1980)

    It was also the plot of the Terminator series of films. Well, except for the detail that the AI controlling the aircraft (called “Skynet”) became “self aware” and that is what caused it to launch all the nukes to kill all the humans.

    So how it differ from Terminator’s “Skynet” is that these real life AI are being controlled by genocidal maniacs (the largest concentration of whom seem to live in the US and Israel at present) and they are setting these things to “auto-kill” mode, like what happened in Gaza recently. And the genocidal maniacs gleefully ignore international law, saying “you want to stop me, you and what army?” So who is to keep them from turning the robots against you and me?

      Skynet was controlling more than just an airplane...

  The Firefly soundtrack says “they can’t take the sky from me”… now I’m thinking maybe they can. :)

  Pilots are expensive and fragile, so we made this mad murder machine to safely rain hellfire on a budget… bonus: non-stop terror as sleep and potty breaks are no longer required!
