@wdolson that was a long post so I won't quote it but in response to your statement "I think cheap commercial drones are getting a brief moment in the sun" . I believe AI and drones haven't even seen the light of day yet and that they will render the need for control moot and make drones truly terrifying. I could see some country launching thousands and thousands of drones with instructions to kill x, y, or z and have a AI fine tuned to flying and identification. Already Google engineers are raising the alarm because startup opensource AI teams are developing and using AI more nimble and just as powerful as anything google or openai have on tap. It's a brave new world but I think the rise in AI combined with reaching the magic 500 on battery energy density means that we'll have heavily armed drones swarming the sky and they should not be very expensive.
