Like a lot of AI boosters, would you like to explain how that works other than magic AI dust? Some forms of optical guidance are already in use, but there's other limitations (lighting! weather!)

Sure thing. The basic idea would be:
1) Have a camera on your drone 2) Run some frames through a locally running version of something like AWS Rekognition's celebrity identification service but for relevant military targets. 3) Navigate towards coordinates of target individuals
It isn't exactly magic, here's a video of a guy doing navigation with openCV on images: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nrzs3dQ9exw
I believe this is a capability that the Switchblade 600 or STM KARGU already has.
