Yes, an autonomous plane would have worked so much better. Can’t wait for AI to replace stupid apes.

A crash instigated by failure in software automation inputs would have been better handled by full AI software automation?

I actually think that is likely. Humans in these conditions have to make decisions under immense stress. Machines don’t, they just need to be able to understand that sensors may fail and are not completely reliable all the time. Though they would need lots of different input , just like humans, to be able to call out which part of its input is flawed.

		There are always unanticipated conditions not accounted for in the automation. That's where pilot training comes in.
