The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) industry, commonly referred to as the drone industry, has grown rapidly in recent years and changed many industries' operational procedures. Drones are adaptable AUs that have the ability to operate independently or remotely. The drone business has developed into a vibrant, diverse sector with applications in many other industries. Drone technology is set to grow and become more integrated into daily life and corporate operations as long as regulations keep up with technological advancements. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are increasingly used in various industries, notably drone companies. AI can improve drone technology's effectiveness, dependability, and efficiency, creating new opportunities for the drone industry to service multiple applications and sectors.
Top1. Introduction
A new age of innovation and opportunities has begun due to the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in the drone sector. Drones are becoming more versatile, practical, and adaptable to different industries thanks to the use of AI to improve their capabilities and functionalities. Incorporating AI into the drone industry improves the capabilities of these unmanned aerial vehicles while also creating new business prospects across several industries. We may anticipate increasingly advanced and intelligent drone uses as AI develops, further transforming industries and enhancing our daily lives (A. Fotouhi, 2019). Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), drones, can be flown autonomously by aircraft computers or remotely by people. UAVs operate similarly to airplanes in that they can lift themselves using aerodynamic principles and transport objects like cameras, weapons, and other items. Drones were initially developed and utilized by the military to strike adversaries. In general, this drone's initial application is in the military (A. Chriki, 2019, A. I. Hentati, 2020). However, it can be applied invarious industries because of the shifting times. Figure 1 Overview of drone applications.

Particularly in the IoT era, artificial intelligence technology is developing at a rapid rate. Drones and artificial intelligence make for attractive technological partners. Artificial AI is a computer program that can simulate human intelligence, including decision-making, problem-solving, and prediction (A. Sharma, 2020, A. Shafique, 2021). The function of the drone is made more sophisticated by the addition of artificial intelligence so that it can assist people with challenging tasks. As an industrial nation, Indonesia was added to the list in 2017 (Kemenperin). Indonesia, a developing country with an industrial base, unquestionably requires new technology to support and advance the sector. With the development of industrial drone technology, it is anticipated that drone applications will be able to outcompete big businesses globally (A. Koubaa, 2019). The Indonesian government supports the use of drones in various government initiatives. The government also controls how drones are used. Drones can be used for various activities, including infrastructure monitoring, cargo delivery. Drones can fly, which allows them to ship things more swiftly and effectively. A drone acting as a firefighting forest can assist in putting out burned forests, particularly inaccessible forest areas, and can also protect firefighters (A. K. Sikder, 2021). The drone explores mining materials and records photographs that track the growth of the mining region.
