DJI Mini 4K drone deal: The best drone for most people is just 239 for a limited time

Popular Science

I've recommended the DJI Mini 4K to just about everyone I know if they're trying to get into aerial photography and videography. It's the perfect balance of advanced features, simplicity, and cost for the average person. But right now, you can grab it with a controller for just 239 at Amazon. This deal sold out on Black Friday, so don't dilly-dally if you want to get up in the air. This craft weighs 249 grams, which seems like an odd weight, but it's actually very strategic.

Analysis: What's behind Iran's alleged drone deal with Russia?

Al Jazeera

Russia's recent missile and drone strikes on Ukraine have highlighted three war developments. Firstly, Iran appears to be playing a significant role in arming Russia. And finally, this new level of intensity means Ukraine is going to need help from the West if this new influx of missiles is to be stopped. In recent weeks, despite Iranian and Russian denials, images of the Shahed-136 drones, their distinctive delta wings silhouetted against the sky, have circulated around the global media. In Kyiv, tower block residents watched in horror as the drones flew below their windows, the lawnmower-like whine of their engines clearly heard, as they purposefully made their way to intended targets.


Google bans use of AI in weapons

#artificialintelligence

Google will not allow its artificial intelligence (AI) software to be used in weapons or unreasonable surveillance efforts under new standards for its business decisions in the nascent field, the Alphabet unit said on Thursday. The restriction could help Google management defuse months of protest by thousands of employees against the company's work with the U.S. military to identify objects in drone video. Google instead will seek government contracts in areas such as cybersecurity, military recruitment and search and rescue, CEO Sundar Pichai said in a blog post. "We want to be clear that while we are not developing AI for use in weapons, we will continue our work with governments and the military in many other areas," he said. Breakthroughs in the cost and performance of advanced computers have carried AI from research labs into industries such as defence and health in the last couple of years.
