If you go down to the woods today
Take a steel butterfly net.
The US Air Force has successfully tested an autonomous AI system on one of its aging Lockheed U-2 (aka "Dragon Lady") reconnaissance aircraft. The aircraft lifted off on Tuesday from Beale Air Force Base in California with the AI, dubbed ARTUµ because who doesn't like a Star Wars reference, solely controlling the U-2's radar …
And to go with the butterfly net, a heavy club plus a Remington 870 with mag extension and plenty of SSG.
Harrassed kitchen assistants and commi chefs are often the people who become great chefs, kitchens don't need no stinkin' bots.

Just when I thought nouvelle cuisine couldn't get any weirder, they're adding AI to the mix? My innards (and checkbook) didn't appreciate the first and I can't imagine how AI (and robots . . . robots?) are going to make it better. Let's call it what it is - the Gastrointestinal Freak-out Project.
I'll keep enjoying my steak and baked potato, thank you.

We incorporate a trajectory generation method (what else is it going to be if not topological? and what does lightweight objectively mean in this context?)

As opposed to statically feasible trajectories of length zero?
I'm assuming lightweight means not very detailed, so quick to compute on an on-board processor.
Dynamic means it can probably change that trajectory on the fly, rather than simply fly a predetermined route, crashing into whatever has appeared since the route was calculated.
"Through the power of AI and robotics, we want to reaffirm the principle of our gastronomy flagship project, which is to enable creative gastronomy that is at the same time healthy and sustainable," said Hiroaki Kitano, CEO of Sony AI. "Together with creators in the gastronomy community, we wish to contribute to creative, healthy, and sustainable gastronomy.”
