A car is not the most effective weapon, so I think it matters with which robots get equipped. It's an interesting word choice: "accurate ethical modeling". Given certain "ethical priors" what we do depends on what we have encountered in life. Soldiers are humans with siblings, parents, wives, pets, homes, etc. that allows them to train what they ought to do in a wide range of situations. If we start to train robots only in the art of killing people, or even only in deescalating dangerous situations, this is a very impoverished dataset. I would never want an AI that is able to kill people, but that I don't trust to hold my baby.
