Yorick/Malz/Annie/Morde etc., Summoned Pets should automatically Attack Move perfectly

and their general AI and movement should be improved

Why?

On top of not even being able to reliably attack move with each pet, considering Malz and Morde can't control theirs, adds a lot of needless complexity and difficulty to their kits that they shouldn't have. It would also allow the Champions to spend less time constantly trying to make the minions move intelligently and just allowing them to do it themselves so you can focus more on what to do next with your own abilities.

In the case of yorick: Ghouls dont last long enough for this to be a problem, revenant is controlled with R Annie: Controlled with R Malz: directed with AAs and E Morde: Directed with R

I play Malzahar and Yorick often and I think Yorick's ghouls are in a good spot. Yoricks ghouls always prioritize champions, so I can E a minion for the last hit, and the ghoul goes straight to the enemy and starts harassing.

Malzahar's voidlings are very powerful, especially since they get 100% of your armor penetration and a 1:1 ratio with your bonus AD. The only thing I wish was changed, is that sometimes when there are no minions in lane the voidling just sits there, pretty far from you and it takes him a while to start following you. This is when the enemy mid just pokes your voidling and kills it, forcing you to summon another to help you clear the next wave. It's as if the voidling hesitates before starting to follow behind you.

Also, I would love to see your pets be treated like champions under turrets. That is, the turret doesn't target them unless there are no minions or they've struck the enemy champion while under its range. I am not entirely sure what effect this would have, though I could see AD Malzahar just obliterate towers. I'd love to see it, but it would probably make these champions too strong at siege.
