>>60913844No. Dead russoids just carry borshdsh soup in their bags.
>>60913844I know a guy who makes a side hustle out of using drones to take property photos.
In military and selling blackmail pics, yes.
Utility sector is beginning to use them to patrol lines and visual maintenance at remote power stations
>>60913844Take pics of celebrities on yachts, sell to press
You can make a killing !
>>60913844yes, military salaries are usually decent during wartime recruiting
>>60914424>>60913977operators for middling tasks will be unnecessary within a year or two. AI controls allow the drone to do that itself. Human controls are needed for quick response and precision.
Here’s a spoofed-out movie trailer script for your drone-operator Top Gun parody:Trailer Script – “Top Bun”(Deep movie trailer voice, over dramatic music that sounds like a knockoff of Danger Zone)NARRATOR (V.O.):“In a world where heroes once ruled the skies… the Air Force’s new elite team doesn’t fly into danger…”(Cut to a montage: close-up of soda cans cracking open, greasy joysticks, and a pizza box sliding across a desk cluttered with energy drinks.)NARRATOR (V.O.):“…they click it from the safety of Mom’s basement.”(Cue shot of the outside: a drab mobile command trailer in the desert. Inside, neon lights, Doritos bags, and dudes in sweatpants pounding keyboards.)[HARD CUT – electric guitar riff](Slow-mo shot: “Captain Recliner” swivels dramatically in a La-Z-Boy, headset on, sunglasses reflecting a drone feed.)CAPTAIN RECLINER:“Target locked… after this Hot Pocket.”(Explosion on screen. Crew cheers, but someone immediately coughs on Mountain Dew.)(Quick flashes of characters):“Dorito”: slamming buttons while yelling: “Lag! That was lag!”“Lag Spike”: duct-taping the router antenna.“Respawn” yelling: “It’s just like Call of Duty, except… with consequences!”NARRATOR (V.O.):“They’re overweight. They’re out of shape. And they’re the only hope we’ve got.”(Epic drone footage of real explosions, then CUT TO interior — crew screaming, chairs rolling backward, one guy still eating Cheetos mid-chaos.)
COMMANDER (stern, in uniform, pointing finger):“You are the best the Air Force has?!”CAPTAIN RECLINER (mouth full of pizza):“Best of the snack bar, sir.”(Cue slow-motion walk of the team in aviator sunglasses… but their bellies jiggle and one guy’s carrying a bag of chips instead of a helmet.)NARRATOR (V.O.):“This summer… prepare for action…”(Drone takes off — cut to real combat footage, loud explosions.)“…thrills…”(Montage of over-the-top drone chase scene, someone yelling “Goose, reboot the Wi-Fi!”)“…and more screen time than ever before.”(Cut to Respawn falling asleep at his keyboard as alarms blare.)TITLE CARD:“TOP BUN”TAGLINE:“The danger zone… now with unlimited refills.”(Final gag: Mom opens the trailer door, holding laundry.)MOM (yelling):“Did you boys bomb the wrong convoy again?!”(Team looks guilty. Fade out with roaring jet sound — except it’s actually just a microwave dinging.
>>60915762>operators for middling tasks will be unnecessary within a year or two. AI controls allow the drone to do that itselfAre you fucking dumb? Someone still needs to drive to the property, take photos, photoshop them, and hand them to the client. How the fuck is AI going to do that or are you assuming that everyone who sells a property owns a drone?
>>60913844There's probably money in having the right insurance and permits
>>60913844Yeah, just fly one in front of a government building. Get bodyslammed by a cop. Sue for 10 million. Move to next city. Rinse, repeat.
A child can operate them
>>60913844There can be, if you want to run a business. Is it great money, probably not. Can you make a living at it, well, maybe depending on what you want to do with them and what your local market is like.Realtor photos, gutter inspections, killing Russians, movie-and-television scene filming, lots of possibilities.You have to get a license from the FAA if you're in the U.S., though.
>>60915762Have you ever tried to build an autonomous robot? Current day sensors still lack the ability to fully map everything fast enough for a drone to be able to fly autonomously. We would need atleast 10-20 years
>>60913844Not if you really want something that doesn't attract too much attention, I considered it for a while until I went for memecoins like those from note.fun, I don't understand why you would keep trying to make money from something other than gambling
>>60918991>Current day sensors still lack the ability to fully map everything fast enough for a drone to be able to fly autonomously. We would need atleast 10-20 yearsThe MIT CSAIL lab had a fixed-wing drone capable of real-time collision avoidance in a fucking FOREST almost a decade ago. The papers are public, not sure if the grad student published his source code or not. He was doing real-time distance estimation by analyzing the rate of change of positions of objects in the stereoscopic view from two cameras mounted near the wingtips. This was all being done with an onboard SBC, which I found fucking incredible because I had no clue that a Raspberry Pi or Snapdragon tier ARM SBC could process images that fast.
>>60913844It was an excuse to buy as expensive drone as an "investment." My brother in law bought an expensive DJI drone about 7 years ago with the excuse that he could get gig work as a real estate photographer. Never did.
>>60915762>muh AIfuck off ramdeep sukhdik manpoo
>>60913844Yep. Make an anti-drone drone that people pissed at these annoying pieces of shit can pay you to take these out. The flashier you take them put the better.
Yes, I'm a land surveyor and drones are increasingly becoming a useful tool for constructionType of contract we have at my firm has me using one literally every day>>60915762Also this guy is fucking retarded, ever heard of helicopters and safety standards?
>>60913844why you casting spells cuh
