My Reolink cameras have pretty good AI detection, I think that is a decent use of AI if it runs locally. I like seeing the "Animal" detections from my doorbell camera, it's usually a cat or a rabbit investigating the front steps.
Mine runs locally on the DVR. I wouldn't trust any cloud service with my video.
My old setup only had normal motion detection. I couldn't enable alerts with that because it would go off all night from the bugs swarming the IR LEDs on the cameras.
UniFi?
It's a Dahua DVR with analog cameras. I have my firewall set so the DVR can only access the push notification server and my SMTP server.
