Chemical, and especially biological, weapons are an order of magnitude more difficult to manufacture correctly, (ie-without killing yourself), than autonomous drones. The thought that autonomous groups like ISIS would not use autonomous drone swarms because such a terrorist attack would "break international law" really is so far beyond "fanciful" that it ventures into "humorous" territory.
I think we can pretty much count on every group with a gripe reaching for autonomous drone swarms first in the future.
