Ukrainian Drone Maker Reveals Test Where Autonomous Drones Killed Russian Soldiers

A Ukrainian drone manufacturer disclosed that fully autonomous drones killed Russian soldiers during a battlefield test two years ago. The test was described by Alexander Kokhanovskyy, CEO of Aero Center, in an interview with New Scientist, involving quadcopter drones preprogrammed to fly to a front-line area and activate an AI-powered 'Terminator mode' to attack any target. Although there was no video feed of the strikes, human-piloted drones later found dead Russian soldiers in the area, leading to the conclusion that the autonomous drones had killed them.
