Is that going to make the operators less remorseful?

  An anime called Psycho-Pass comments on this. A system existed to replace the remote view with a cartoonish environment with chicken characters so the operators would not receive psychological harm from operating a violet instrument.

    There was a Black Mirror episode with a similar concept where footsoldiers were implanted with a chip that made them see enemies as literal monsters

      Its also the plot of a 90s star trek tie in novel for children where they had kids play a censored video game but were really exterminating the native population https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Highest_Score https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Highest_Score Anyways, its a reasonably common sci-fi plot.

  I’m rather more worried about those that get shot.
