Bad actors already use adversarial patterns by mixing up within the civilian population.
This is been to core concept of guerrilla warfare since it was conceived and likely well before it was named.
In fact even outside of war zones bad actors constantly hide in plain sight we just call them criminals rather than terrorists when they aren’t a foreign entity with a political goal (although organized crime can easily fall under the definition of terrorism under certain conditions).
As far as dumb machines go then we already have plenty of systems which already automate much of the killing including target identification and tracking.
We’ve already been over selling dumb machines that make killing easier a human in a conflict zone overloaded with sensor data that makes it easy to hit a target isn’t more likely to make the right decision.
Given the limited window of opportunity and the level of cognitive dissonance any one engage in combat has to develop as coping mechanism the idea that humans are inherently capable of making a moral decision under these conditions is pretty laughable to me.
