Or that they'll just be lazy and sloppy.
In movies you used to sometimes see someone put a brick on a car's gas pedal so they could send it through a wall, or into a lake, or whatever. In a comedy, you sometimes used to see someone rig up something so that their car could drive while they slept.
Running AI "agents" is basically like opening up some application that has a lot of keyboard shortcuts to run various scripts and then putting a brick on the keyboard.
Unfortunately, we're now at a stage where some people think that's a good idea. The machines aren't capable of thought, they have no desires or goals. But, if some of those scripts instruct a drone to go out and kill someone, the brick on the keyboard can get someone killed.
They aren't, but they do a damn good job at reading inputs, following a document of instructions, and using control output.
Setting a waypoint, retrieving imagery, using machine vision to identify a human is an easily wrote task.
Having Claude code write an app to run on a pc to do all that is trivial.
The other stuff is just something the military already does redily
