No, you simpyfying it to the point of being not true. Furrbies had the delay built in that triger more complex senteces with time which sparked the dabage about their learning capabilities. Which sparked NSA policy - which you make sound like it was reasonable. It was clearly not. If they did a basic reasefch would uncover that the technology is not there.

And with AI weapons you miss forest for a tree.

AI doomsday PR stories are abuot terminator level of singularity. AGI, self+replication and compeleat autonomy.

Military people buying shitty language models and weapons with low-lewel authinomy that in nowhere near that, is obviously a problem. The Sam way that would entrust the ewpins to kids or Magic 8-balls. But it is not the proof it wasn't just PR. Its the proof that it worked.
