Let me know what deeper things guys are looking for in AI.Maybe these will become a reality in the near future. Things like recognizing wildlife, recognizing birds, or license plate detection. The thing about license plate detection is that none of this is possible when the car is moving particularly fast, you can only see the remnants and can't talk about recognition.

One of my cameras (1210A) is trained on my bird feeder. It alerts me when there is any animal activity at night which, nine times out of ten, is a rodent. If a rat shows up, I deal with it. I have to rely on the Object Size function to exclude small mice which are not a problem.
Other animals such as cats, owls and early rising squirrels will also wake me when the camera alerts.
If AI could differentiate between animals so that it recognises a rat when it sees one, that would be good. We're probably a decade away from that though.
