1) Buy a $200 drone, fly it around for a day and record video output.
2) Write a web scraper and run it for a day on an AWS instance.
3) Download any of the publicly released data sets. There are lot of interesting ones out there, including medical imaging, etc.
4) Hack a video game engine to generate data.
5) Write your own data generator (could even be a generative NN model). Not all data can be simulated, but when it can be, doing so is incredibly powerful.
A few of the above options were not available just 5-7 years ago. Data is becoming more publicly accessible, not less.
