When (or if) Ring's security camera drone flies into our homes in January, you won't get the option to pilot it yourself. The Ring Drone Cam relies entirely on an "AI Pilot" system to follow pre-programmed routes and navigate autonomously around obstacles, with no manual control option available - and an embarrassing demonstration with CBS News might reveal why.
