As advanced cruise control, yes. No, but in practice it doesn't change a thing as humans can bomb civilians just fine themselves. Yes and yes.

If we're not talking about LLMs which is basically computer slop made up of books and sites pretending to be a brain, using a tool for statistical analysis to analyze a shitload of data (like optical, acoustic and mechanical data to assist driving or seismic data to forecast tsunamis) is a bit of a no-brainer.
