yes that is a good description of this totally legit story

military intelligence is good enough to figure out how to program an AI on a limited training set with enough compute to give it autonomy, and not mess it up

that's how you sound rn

usaf explicitly trains drone with knowledge of its human operator's function and location as well as knowledge of its control tower's function and location but does not train it to protect these vital resources even though that is literally the only reason anyone would ever train a drone to have that knowledge

limited training set
