And still with AI systems taking care of the plane security there would be failures that will knock downd computers , lightning strikes, generator spikes, some kind of fisical damage to the plane, fire at the computer rack. All this is usual enough to keep comercial flights from using drones.

All modern planes are fly by wire. There is a very high level of redundancy for flight computer.

The kind of damages to take down all systems will probably structurally impair flyability.

Hehe believe me computers fail and is not 1 in a million failure more one in a 50 flights or so, you reset them and nothing fatal happens, but they fail! Fly by wire only saves weight removing or reducing cables and hydraulic systems. In fact adding Fly by wire adds more computers and more complexity to the plane. I has taken more than 15 years to fix to airbus to fix lots of bugs.
