Aren’t drones piloted by humans?
Increasingly they are not piloted by humans, many of them are, currently some of the more advanced drones have a basic AI element to them that can carry out missions without human interaction.
I read somewhere that some of the drones Ukraine used to take out Russian Strategic Bombers were programmed to recognize the type of aircraft to attack and where on the plane to hit all without human control.
I’ve wondered that. If you have a swarm of 300 drones striking a target are there 300 operators sitting in a command and communication center piloting them.
