Autonomous artificial-life bomb

Autonomous artificial-life bombs are employed by the Thraal. They are AI-driven suicide bombers- enslaved machine intelligences with the sole purpose of reaching their programmed destination and exploding.
Fiction
2019 IDW continuity
The Thraal activated an autonomous artificial-life bomb to undertake an terrorist attack on Sentinel Prime's ship during his tour of off-world Cybertronian colonies. Nautica and Road Rage uncovered the plot and tried to seize the life bomb, but it was equipped with a short-range, single-use teleporter and moved to the outer hull of the ship. Catching up with it, Nautica spoke its machine language and tried to dissuade it from exploding, to no avail. Road Rage had Lightbright overload a pressurized valve on the ship's hull, which blasted the bomb off into space to be safely detonated away from the ship. Nautica: Home
