IKEA has launched an AI-powered drone system aimed at improving warehouse management efficiency. By using RFID and barcode scanning, it enhances inventory accuracy, with data collection speed 15 times faster than manual methods, reducing stocktaking time. Following the successful pilot, there are plans to expand this system to more locations over the next year. The drones not only enhance efficiency but also can navigate obstacles flexibly to perform various tasks. This trend is expected to continue growing at a rate of 15.7% annually. Automation leads to cost reductions but impacts the labor market, requiring companies to balance development with human resource management.

The U.S. Air Force plans to invest approximately $5.8 billion over the next five years to build up to 2,000 AI-driven drones. These drones will collaborate with human pilots in combat, with an expected cost of around $3 million each. The drones will first test their dogfighting and target tracking capabilities in simulated scenarios in the Gulf of Mexico.
