Those already exist. But there isn't a machine yet that can replace infantry, which is why some of scariest technologies coming up are the smart fire control systems on infantry rifles.
Soldiers identify the targets they want to hit, get their rifle in position, aim, but the gun fires itself when it's calculated it's best chance of hitting the target.
Yeah, the Dutch military has ordered a bunch of these for testing against drones too.
