“and prevents risks to human life”… no implications there, I’m sure.
This story is from 2021.

The tank-like robot has the ability to transport itself to a preset destination. It can also spot and avoid obstacles by utilizing dozens of sensors and an advanced driving system. Moreover, the platform can self-destruct if it falls into enemy hands.
It is not an autonomous weapons system. It is a platform that can maneuver autonomously.
Semi-autonomous doesnt really mean anything and is a deliberately sensationalist headline.
The key technological discussion is when it’s not a human pulling the trigger.
Even guns are semi autonomous by this definition
