That's why they want to offload the trigger/button to the AI as well...

They don't want AI to give a human a target to hit. They want the AI to do it start to finish, because the AI will do anything they tell it to.

It's real fucking hard to get an army to fire on its own citizens, for AI controlled systems, you just change a designation to "hostile".

They're gambling that they get to be feudal lords, so they're knowingly risking the chance they lose control of the AI weapons systems later.

This kind of greed will never be satiated, they'll never have enough that they stop taking these risks, and the more wealth they hoard the bigger risks they can personally afford to take. They don't give a fuck about our odds.
