I'd say it does to an extent, dependant on the source material. If they were trained on actual military strategies and tactics as their source material with proper context, I'd wager the responses would likely be different.

Totally. Properly trained AI would probably just flood a country with misinformation to trigger a civil war. After it installs a puppet government, it can leverage that countries resources against other enemies.
