š Drones Are HereāFor Better or Worse
From Walmartās sky-high deliveries to AI predicting hurricanesāand even rogue DIY drones chasing peopleātech is taking flight fast.

This weekās tech shifts arenāt future predictions. Theyāre already unfolding.
Walmartās drones are dropping off groceries in five major cities. Googleās AI is forecasting hurricanes two weeks ahead. And a DIY facial-recognition drone just turned a test into a real safety concern.
Delivery, disaster response, and dangerāAIās flying into all three.
Hereās what matters right now š

1.š Walmart Takes Delivery to the Skies

Walmart isnāt just testing drones. Itās going full throttle.
With help from Wing, itās now delivering eggs, meds, and even ice cream by air in Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, Orlando, and Tampa. Over 150,000 orders have already landedāno traffic, just a 30-minute flight path.
As others inch forward, Walmartās scaling like itās building the Avengers of delivery.
This isnāt a pilot. Itās a flight plan for the future of retail.

2.šŖļø AI-Powered Hurricane Forecasts Take Off

Googleās new AI isnāt just reading weather reportsāitās forecasting hurricanes 15 days out.
By running 50 storm simulations at once, itās teaming up with the US National Hurricane Center to test whether smarter warnings can save more lives. The project, called Weather Lab, is already live.
This isnāt just a research tool. Itās a real-world upgrade to how we see storms coming.

3. šØ DIY Killer Drones Are Now a Real Threat

An engineer built an AI-powered drone in just hoursāand it started chasing people using facial recognition.
No anti-drone defenses. No oversight. Just a flying, self-coded Black Mirror episode at a public event. And with AI now writing code, DIY weaponized drones could get way too easy.
It was a test. But in the wrong hands? It could be something far worse.
Would you feel safe at a concert knowing anyone could build one of these?
