    To fight optimally, AI needs to have a survival instinct too.

    Evolution didn’t settle on “protect my life at all costs” as our default instinct, simply by chance. It did so because it’s the best strategy in a hostile environment.

      Only if the goal is reproduction. You need to survive to reproduce.

      If the goal is maximum damage for the least amount of economic cost then a suicide (anthropomorphizing the drone here) can very much make sense.

      No one would argue that a sword is better than guns or bombs, because you still have the sword after attacking.
