Apropos the bloodthirsty nature of #AI, that's American Artificial Intelligence for you...
British doctrine wrt the use of autonomous platforms, weapon systems and kill-chains can be summed up, awkwardly, as
'Sensor-to-Decision-Maker-to-Shooter'
with an insistence on human judgement in the loop.
The American military is way more laconic, being gung-ho about 'Sensor-to-Shooter' warfare, with _no_ human intervention in the kill-chain. Worrying.

On the subject of loops, military analysts will recognise the fundamental cycle used by military planners to conduct operational planning: the #OODA Loop. At a UK-Eyes-Only briefing I was enlightened by an RAF Air Cdre (who shall remain nameless) that in British military doctrine, OODA stands for Observe Orient Decide Act but to US general staff officers, OODA stands for Observe Overreact Destroy Apologise (Donald Trump hasn't mastered the 'Apologise' stage yet...) https://youtu.be/x5AdETLOZgE?si=31Kc7MCpvXccRflg
