Thanks for linking these! They indeed capture that same concept and are quite beautiful, in a haunting sense. In this case automated technology seems to inhabit the same space as ghosts in a non-sci-fi setting. At least the type of ghost that re-enacts some event over and over. (The title of the short story I mentioned is an overt reference to one of those stories). I wonder what added meaning the technological element conveys, e.g. the difference between a story about ghostly sailors re-entering naval combat ad infinitum vs. a story about robotic pilots continuing a physical war patterned by their long dead designers. Both are a form of haunting.
