I would expect them to use statistical models to estimate probability of kill given the state of the target, drone, and environment at the time of a simulated weapon firing. Certainly not perfect, but you probably won't find many test

It seems like an entirely valid statement. AI can certainly make faster decisions than a human and it can utilize accurate 6DoF calculations and multi-sensor fusion that humans can only roughly approximate in an intuitive way during battle

A Tomahawk is a drone, just not the kind discussed in this article. A Tomahawk is subsonic missile designed to attack land and sea targets. The drone they are talking about here would be able to attack land, sea, and air targets. It woul

That is a common viewpoint, but one I strongly disagree with. I exclude illegal disruptive orders, since those are addressed by market reg disciplinary action. An aggressing order that provides new information to the market is not harmful

The markets need aggressive orders as well as passive orders. There is nothing inherently bad about liquidity taking. It is generally just as beneficial as liquidity providing. If anything, the misuse of passive orders is probably more

Slow market making is still market making, although rarely a good idea in my view. There are instruments with market makers operating at millisecond time scales. Not nearly as many as a few years ago, but they do still exist.
