What Was I Thinking - Dangers of AI Not What You Think

If you are a Terminator fan, then you may believe that someday AI may overtake humanity, and we all may find ourselves in a post apocalyptic war with AI robots. That may happen one day, but I think the biggest problem with AI, at least right now is that we just don't know what is real anymore and I am not as concerned that we are being fooled into believing an AI created video, but rather that we now disbelieve the actual truth right before us. This is very dangerous as even with actual proof in the from of a video, a person can now say it is AI and not real. What do you think is the most dangerous part of AI?

DJI NEO Flight Fort Langley December 1st 2024

I love bringing my little DJI Neo along with me when I am out and about going for a dog walk or some sort of other adventure. I can throw it along with my DJI Goggles and FPV RC Controller in a really small backpack and don't even notice it. I may or may not use it but I have the option to...

So today I took it for a quick flight during our Dog Walk as it was a really nice day and I had not flown in a bit. Fort Langley has it all, a beautiful river, mountain views and great walking trails! Enjoy the view from up above, it's even better :)

DJI Neo Hawk Encounter

I love flying around with my FPV Drones and lately I have been zipping around a lot with my DJI NEO FPV Drone. Not because it is the best FPV drone in my arsenal but it has a good balance of video quality combined with being able to cruise around and get some decent video. The DJI NEO can record in 4k 30 fps but I prefer recording in 1080p 60 as it looks a lot smooth in the goggle, and in the final video output even with the lower resolution, and at least for FPV flying this is the way to go. For more slowed down cinematic stuff, 4k looks good too.

On this DJI Neo adventure, I came across a Red Tailed Hawk and so I decided to take my chances and see if he would allow me to get up a little closer to him. He didn't seem to mind much as I am sure he realized pretty quickly the DJI Neo was no match or threat to him. That said, I bugged out pretty quickly as I did not want to find out what would happen when a Hawk decides you are a predator. Enjoy the video, I think the little NEO does a pretty good job considering its low cost and small size.

DJI NEO Camera Gimbal Freakout

I was having a nice rip around the yard with my DJI NEO when for no real reason the camera gimbal started freaking out causing me to crash. Here is the recorded and unedited video feed from the 1080p 60fps drone and in camera recordings.

It seems that while the gimbal was acting up, the speed data on the goggles was way faster than it should have been as I was for sure not going that fast.

I did crash my DJI NEO pretty hard into the ground a bit before this but it flying fine for a while before the gimbal acted up. I restarted my NEO and it seemed to be fine after the restart? After the incident I gave it a really good cleaning just in case some dirt got in the gimbal system?

Has anyone else had this happen to them?
