To put some context: we Russians always preferred automated systems to having humans in the loop — we have a lot of history with particularly prominent examples of less than fully sane humans in the loop, without proper checks and balances to restrain them.

So I am absolutely not surprised of the development, and we'll see much more instances of these systems soon. The only good part is that Russians strongly dislike complicated control systems, so the "AI" in question will be much simpler than what would Americans do.
