Fair enough.

I once tame a game a few month ago inspired by Nier Automata where the twist was that the "Human" the pc's where playing as where actually androids Robots made to hunt and kill after they killed off the humans. That had a good player reaction

A while ago, I joked about autonomous robots arising from a genocidal ethnic conflict which eventually extinguished humanity as a whole. At the end of it, you had killer robots that were designed to exterminate <ethnic group> and robots that were designed to fight those robots. The war continued, hundreds or thousands of years past the point where it could possibly have had any relevance. Both sides eventually took to space, the former following the utterly nonsensical goal of searching the universe for any remaining members of <ethnic group> and the latter intent on stopping them. This is a silly idea, but I still like the concept of a vast, interminable robotic war ultimately driven by a pointless, nigh-incomprehensible rationale.

sounds cool. but unsure of how to implement this stuff into a post apocalyptic setting where the pc's aren't the machines.

While some PCs could be machines, I'd imagine that there would be holdouts, especially if the automated war machines weren't particularly intelligent, and keep bombing the same targets again and again.

the governments of 3 or more major nations starten an ai arms race, but they had forgotten to program the limits of the national defence budget into the automated factory so in only saw the material resources needed, then a military exercise by another nation activated a glitch the mainframe thought was an invasion and began overclocked production of fighting robots .

So.... Terminator?

then the factory overrode the civilian factories to also produce war material.
the automatic factory also saw any one trying to stop it was a 5th columnist

Just make the machines scarce enough that pockets of society have managed to survive.
