> We don't let passengers fly on unvetted jumbo jets either and we prevent them from flying when they have problems.

This is Mr. Fart's Favorite Colors all over again. Our "vetting" process is not any more useful than the billion-dollar metal detector you can skip with a TSA Precheck. It arguably does not deter the most dangerous attacks even slightly. What happens when a mentally-ill pilot locks their copilot out of the cockpit? Well, we write off a crowd of passengers and then "vet" the next jet as a safe vehicle.

AI will be the same way. These "safety" measures are performative and do not even slightly address the actual threat surface of the technology. Arguably, it cannot even be done.

What knowledge or skills do you have to be hating on the certification process for airplanes?

It’s just getting ridiculous at this point. There are plenty of industries regulated and certified by national or international agencies. And no they don’t get to do what they want.

		And when we do let them self-regulate (like Boeing) shit hits the fan a few years later (737 MAX et al.) like clockwork. Unfortunately I have just as little trust in this instance of the US government as I do the corporations. Hopefully it's only two more years of this.
