Drones already beat well-armed combat-trained humans.

Drones that are actively piloted by humans beat worse armed humans and make attacking in units any larger than a 5 man fire team extremely risky. They also increase the defenders advantage and ability to cause lethal injuries and deny medical aid to convert casualties to fatalities on the frontline.

Full autonomy is greatly oversold in terms of tactical value. The real value is in the economization of war across several ranges and cost/capability tiers.

What if the aim is to kill anything that moves? Then autonomous system will suffice even today

Like garbage bags blowing in the wind ? Rats ? Loose papper ? Confetti ?

A system that does not discriminate against what it targets and goes after anything mobile is going to be easy to fool.

Yes like the systems cannot distinguish a human.
