>why not let AI fly commercial aircraft

Most commercial aircraft are already capable of taking off, flying, and landing, completely under computer control.

Computer control =/= AI. AFAIK, no certified aircraft has a model-based stochastic blackbox at the yoke.

Judging by the mere flood of praise of AI on HN, where we know people are over average smart, I truly am concerned.
