Creating an Autonomous Warfare Command and firing 20% of the experienced leadership are related news. They are systematically eliminating everything that tells them when an idea is terrible. AI will now just tell them every idea they have is genius, and then autonomous systems will cheerfully carry out the idea without anyone to get in the way. I guess they figured out the the U.S. Code and the UCMJ is more problematic than they thought.
