Swarms of AI “killer robots” are the future of war: If that sounds scary, it should::Commentary: Are we sure AI-guided weapons systems will obey human commands?
Everyone’s thinking of drones dropping bombs, but they aren’t thinking of the true horror; kamikaze micro drones. It doesn’t take much to kill someone, and micro drones can be wicked fast. Imagine a swarm of drones the size of a finch or smaller, each carrying a tiny explosive. Imagine these drones flying next to people’s heads and detonating themselves. You could clear out a whole building with very little structural damage.

That’s horrifying. I was thinking of this one:

You’re thinking of kamikaze finches and I’m thinking of Terminators.
Sure, but what kind of range do you get with tiny drones? Although they could probably be delivered to the vicinity by some other vessel. Like cluster warheads but with a large swarm of exploding autonomous drones.
Quite a bit more than you would think. Remember, besides the potential for a drone carrier, these drones wouldn’t need power for the flight back.
A non-rechargable battery can also have significantly more capacity. A suicide drone likely doesn’t need to be recharged.
Like a Bat Bomb.
I’ve already watched dozens of Russians die like this.

Hoping it will be treated like biological chemical warfare. It may be good at killing, but that’s not necessarily the best way of conducting warfare
