We thought autonomous killbots were beyond the current state of the art because we can't yet make a bot that distinguishes between a Russian and a Ukrainian. Hah. Those clever Ukrainians side-stepped the problem by making bots Kill All Humans but only within a geofenced area - and then they tell Ukrainians to stay out of that area.
I wonder if once this stupid war is finally over, there will be an Anti-Personnel Robots Convention. Russia, China, and the USA won't sign, of course.

@jef@mastodon.social This is "area denial", usually exemplified by land mines, so this sound more than a little war-crimey, I think?
