This youngster just built a drone that runs down people (cheap chinese model). ...says he added AI and facial recognition so it can go after particular individuals!

 

We built an AI-steered homing/killer drone in just a few hours

I thought it would be fun to build a drone that chases you around as a game. It just uses an AI object detection model to find people in the frame, and then the drone is programmed to fly towards this at full speed… pic.twitter.com/p5ijBiHPxz

Assault weapons (or modern rifles as I call them) are gonna be a cute problem of the past. What happens when you can launch a swarm of these things (invest what say a few thousand dollars) filled with some type of explosive and send them after the person you love to hate. How do you beat a drone cloud of bombs flying toward just you? This was home made so imagine what govts worldwide already have! Shit has changed. Soon its gonna be time to just lay low and watch all the drama. Threats are one thing, but currently a bit of awareness and you can beat them. This coupled with snipers, assault teams etc...and no high value target will be safe.
