One of Russia's biggest mistakes in invading Ukraine is that it gives western weapons developers a chance to field test experimental weapons under combat conditions against what is ostensibly a near-peer foe.

When technological countermeasures become common these types of ammunition will be required to have a closed system, that is not reliant on orbital satellites relaying them gps layouts. Instead they will likely utilize a complex algorithm that takes an initial relayed mapping of the terrain and then utilizes realtime analysis to compare the terrain to the initial layout and adjusts flight patterns accordingly based on how or if the terrain changes. Likely going to mean the removal of most friendly forces when in use just to be safe, but IFF/rapidly changing frequency signals will likely be implemented to help the ai both differentiate between friend and foe, as well as help act as a means to limit friendly fire when engagements are within close enough ranges.

In a high intensity conflict against a near-peer opponent, I think this is a good thing. Since this would actually save more lives (albeit, lives from your side, at the expense of the enemies', which is what you want, right?). You don't really need any judgement in this case other than identifying it is the enemy, in this case an autonomous weapon that can guide itself or identify its own target would be amazing for your own troops on the ground since they can be more efficient. Or to put it in a different way, would you risk a platoon of say 25 men with their gear and training to ambush a Russian convoy, maybe losing 2-5 guys....or do you send maybe 4-5 autonomous munitions to achieve the same result? In a low intensity conflict against an asymmetrical opponent though, it's a different story and a lot more judgement from a human is needed before taking the shot.

In this question, AI is a moot point. First of all, there is no intelligence in it, it's just a machine. A landmine once laid down is also autonomous and not very selective about who it will kill. A simple bomb once loosed from a plane also falls where it may, it doesn't question whose head it is. Accuracy for a killer robot is same sort of thing, just because it's driven by software not by luck and random chance doesn't make it meaningfully different. Weapons of war sometimes hit the wrong target, or are in fact used carelessly or even completely without regard for rules of war.

The only reason chemical warfare was successfully banned is because no country ever managed to get it to work all that well. The advantage of chemical weapons simply doesn't make it worth the headache. This of course ignoring the fact that lots of countries, including the US have still used chemical weapons anyway whenever they've found a particularly good reason for it. Be that agent orange or white phosphorus. Autonomy in drones is quite simply too useful to ever be banned.

There are more than enough people, who can be trained to sit in the comfort and safety of a secure base and engage the enemy without risk.

I think the final statement is kinda misleading? if thats the word. Yes machines and ai can make mistakes, but so do people. Ai can make mistakes, misidentify a stick for a gun through cloud for example. But human eyes are just as capable of making the same mistake. I think that, just as with autonomous cars, the question isnt if cant be right 100% of the time it should be banned, but is it better than a human. As the tech develops, ai will get better and better at identifying the right target. A point will come that ai is so good that it will be irresponsible not to use them not only because they have better target id but also cos they reduce risk to human soldiers.

They have human controllers and human brains making the life and death decisions. They do not make the choice on whether or not they deploy lethal ordinance. A UAV is a tool.

I really doubt if these Skynets could ever get sentient and/or go against their creators, but even if they did, we'll simply employ other "Skynets" to fight it. No problem. In any case, real life "Skynet" won't be a monolithic super AI with full and unrestricted access to all smart devices on Earth, but a crippled AI on an ASIC device, with limited processing power for general purpose task, and no interface to connect to anything that's not part of its main function (again to prevent hacking). So the real life "Skynet" will need an entire day just to hack single automatic door (e.g. learning how to send and process signals to and from its sensor and motor), years to hack a smartphone, and centuries (if ever) to "hack" the ancient semi-analog nuclear ICBM computers.
