And they wash their hands after a deadly strike, saying the AI that made the decision.

It eerily reminds me of a research piece I read recently detailing how the Nazis turned to automation for their mass exterminations because most of them couldn't bear the mental toll that came with their direct action.

Unfortunately, I couldn't quickly find that series of articles back.
