   No, it will behave as stupidly as any human, for sure.   
   And will be trained to say what people want to hear, in order to buy   
   whatever the organisation funding it wants to sell you.

   Not conscious, merely indistinguishable from the 'average voter'

   Ukrainians are pretty far along the track. Absolute world leaders in   
   unmanned armaments.   
      
   Imagine a little spider-like  'bot' equipped with a miniature   
   hypodermic, a GPS sensor, solar panels and a teensy gas chromatograph,   
   able to go to a specific location taking weeks if necessary, and stab   
   the person whose DNA corresponds to its mission with a lethal venom.   
      
   No 'world leader' would be safe.
