I'm surprised no one has been assassinated by a drone. Train a computer vision model for the target, attach a gun, and let it fly around until the person is fou

Assassination by drone has happened; just ask General Qassem Soleimani of Iran. By an autonomous drone, though? Maybe not.

  Hopefully, their "AI" facial recognition doesn't pick the wrong person. That would be worse than looking for all of the Sarah Conners in the phone book one by one.

The US has been using drones for assassination for something like 18 years now.

The US has killed 10-21k people with drone strikes since 9/11, including 1-2k civilians and hundreds of children [0]. Of course, real numbers are likely much higher.
