> "In the test, the satellite tilted forward to scan 500km ahead of its orbit and snapped a preview image. Ubotica’s AI quickly analysed the scene to check for cloud cover. If the skies were clear, the satellite tilted back to take a detailed photo of the surface. If clouds obscured the view, it skipped the shot — saving time, storage, and bandwidth."
The title implies more than that, I'd think. I'm surprised satellites haven't been checking for cloud cover for years?
A satellite just used AI to make its own decisions in space
