Training drone operators ? It's literally one of the hottest segment now in the flying sector. Google Maps has one of the best urban map and now a flight engine.

Grand Theft Auto is now doing it, but Google Earth would make more sense because it can bring a more realistic environment.

I keep thinking about this and now your comment reminded me of it: did OpenAI have a "gym" 10(+?) years ago where autonomous cars were trying to navigate Los Santos in GTA5? If not, whose work was it and why did it come to an end?

		Wasn't this gym thing a big task where some guy was trying to stand on a wobbly stick or something like that ? and then it indirectly helped SpaceX for their landing ?

I hadn’t thought about that, it’s a valid use case and likely to have increasing demand as drone deliveries become commonplace in the next few years.
