I'd imagine they'd evetually design a jet purpose built for an AI that would be a lot cheaper than a human-oriented one. Removing the need for a cockpit with seats, displays, controls, oxygen, etc would surely reduce cost. It would also open the door for innovations in air-frame design previously impossible.

We keep talking like we’re discussing the future, but autonomous drones are already fighting in the skies of Ukraine.

Begun, the drone wars have.
