The US military did a test with something like 20 soldiers where they had to avoid detection by autonomous systems designed to detect humans.

Every single one of the soldiers used a different method and every single one of them succeeded in not getting killed by the system. Tactics varied from moving extremely slowly in prone position to literally metal gear solid hiding inside a cardboard box, one soldier covered themselves in tinfoil.

These will be no different. Easily defeatable simply by behaving in ways that are outside its detection, or not looking like a human being.

solid🐍 moment

From a technical point of view, it's easier to point a gun and shoot at whatever enters your detection range if you don't have to distinguish whether it's a human or not.

Good thing for the South Korean military that birds, animals, and leaves blowing on the wind don't exist.

In the event this happens, critical support to North Korea using a big fan and a trillion leaves to get the South Korean military to waste thousands of rounds of ammo on nothing

Didn't one of them also hold a bunch of tree limbs and similar nonsense?

Not hard to avoid if you know what it is and have any sort of frontal lobe

Maybe! I don't remember them all or exactly where I read about it. Just really stuck with me that defeating this shit is really just a matter of doing whatever the devs have not planned for and that's gonna be a lot.
