  "description": "AI gives drones autonomy -- navigating without GPS, dodging obstacles at high speed, and coordinating in swarms. From Skydio's obstacle-dodging drones to Zipline's medical delivery network across Africa, AI-powered aerial autonomy is reshaping delivery, inspection, search-and-rescue, and agriculture.",
