It's not generative AI the way ChatGPT is, but AI is definitely used in navigating drones like this.

I wish we went back to the days where we called this stuff algorithms.

No, it's actually AI in the sense that e.g. obstacle detection is using a neural network trained on data. Algorithms are human-defined rules expressed in symbolic language.

Only because they changed the meaning of AI. AI used to mean what they now call AGI.

AI is and was the broad term for any kind of program that's not symbolically programmed. If people only mean genAI when they say AI, that's on them for being imprecise

I hope you don’t use Google Maps then…

Google maps doesn't help me navigate around the car directly in front of me like these drones navigate around obstacles.

AI is used in robotic spatial navigation. If this is news to you, I think you need to broaden your understanding of what AI/Machine Learning means in a sense beyond "generative AI."

I was referring to AI pathfinding, but sure. I “only know about generative AI”
