Human in the loop is infeasible in comms denied areas which is what we have in Ukraine/Russia right now.
It's why Ukraine and Russia are now using fully autonomous drones. That's the only real solution to jamming.

What does that have to do with LLMs hosted by Anthropic. They didn't say the Dept of War couldn't make kill bots. They said no using Claude to make kill decisions. A quadcopter drone running on a Raspberry Pi isn't running an Anthropic model locally.
anthropic's models would also be useless in a jammed environment though
and the only way to use them would be to blow up A100s
Not true, fibre controlled drones are actually pretty important out there right now: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/fiber-opt...
Not viable for long range strikes.
No, they are using long optical cables attached to drones. The battlefield looks like a giant spider web afterwards.
Fiber optic drones were last year's weapon of choice, this year it is drones with autonomous terminal phase. This happened because the AI data center build-out increased demand for fiber optics, driving up the price to less affordable levels. Autonomous terminal phase is also more effective; ~80% mission success compared to ~30% for fiber optic drone.
Are they still doing that? I saw that months ago
I genuinely can't tell if you're joking, though I'd like to believe you are...

Fiber optic drones are real but the fully autonomous drones others are describing are also real (but less publicized due to the bad PR around killbots)
