It's adorable how you think it will improve how war is fought. These autonomous systems will always have a manual override and I will never believe that the review process will be given proper oversight. The armed forces will always err on the side of destruction in any potentially vaguely violent scenario. Fear and War is too prosperous to be peaceful.

If this is true, one wonders why they waste all that time writing rules of engagement, and prosecuting those who don't follow them.
We generally only prosecute those who break those "rules of engagement" when they are not ourselves.
