We have little more than a single ambiguous video and hearsay on the subject of an auto-targeting anti-personnel quadcopter. However, recently videos emerged of an auto-targeting Ukraine-produced fixed-wing bombing trucks and such.
It is wild and utterly tragic to me how much the landscape of warfare as changed so rapidly.
While I adamantly support the Ukrainian defense against Russia's invasion, I still cannot help but feel empathy for many of the soldiers on both sides. Young men and women that likely would rather be anywhere else in the world.
Warhammer 40k lore was right about one thing, "There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods."
The utter tragedy is that old men love to start wars and watch young men die in them.
Technology always changes war, and this is just the beginning of drone technology. Autonomous operations will increase with time, and sooner or later warring nations will just drop clouds of small drones in particular areas and 'let god sort them out'.

I guess as you say it may be not so. The fixed wing ones taking out trucks I think are from Eric Schmidt's company.
