This isn’t about AI and has nothing to do with whatever bullshits Musk is/was up to. They basically integrated drone tech into a Cessna and flew it remotely from a ground base. It’s drone tech combined with an autopilot—fairly basic and proven, already utilized in military, agriculture, and hobby industries.
