I don't think that's the case at all with flight vs vehicles. Autonomous driving is complicated because you have to take into account a wide range of scenarios and wide range of human behaviors, and a complex environment to understand. And then make very fuzzy choices on how to react to those scenarios. Combat is a simpler zero sum game, pick and target and destroy. Based on how AI plays top games right now(Starcraft and Dota), very fast quick reflexes and pin point accuracy of their attacks I think the AI drones are going to crush humans.
