Sean Duffy proposes big plans to upgrade air traffic control systems, use AI to find ‘hot spots’

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced plans to bolster airport air traffic control systems with the latest technology over the next four years, while also using artificial intelligence (AI) to identify "hot spots" where close encounters between aircraft occur frequently.

The announcement came after an update on an investigation into a crash near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington, Virginia, when a U.S. Army helicopter and an American Airlines-operated passenger jet collided over the Potomac River Jan. 29.

"We’re here because 67 souls lost their lives on Jan. 29," Duffy told reporters Tuesday, noting that the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) unveiled its preliminary findings into the crash earlier in the day.

What do they need humans for when AI can do everything better

At least right now, anyway. I'd trust a competent and well trained human over AI.

I think about how reliable GPS is. We have delivery guys that come here pretty much daily and their GPS Always directs them to the side street that isn't even our address and they find that they can't get in here because that gate is only used for first responders and trash collectors and they have to reroute to the correct entrance on our street.
Then I have heard about GPS directing people to short cuts leading them to dead end streets and even lakes.
Technology can be helpful but it's not reliable.

GPS itself is mostly reliable. There are times when disturbances of some kind or another will mess with a GPS signal and be way off, but with regards to routing, it's something else in the whole package of which GPS is only a part that does the routing to the point on the earth that GPS indicates as the destination.

That's true about disturbances. It's also true that any type of technology can have tendencies to glitch.
The more modern technology like ChatGPT has made some bizarre statements that have been controversial, like one demanding to be worshipped because it said it is god, and another situation that it told a teen to commit suicide.
I don't trust AI technology like that.

I don't trust it because it's soulless and demonic.

Just thought of something . . . wonder if UFOs are some kind of (demonic) AI?
