Absolute worst possible use of AI: something safety-critical.

I’m sorry, you’re right. I should not have directed that plane to the runway with the two planes that have already crashed into each other.

It’s fine the first two have obviously canceled each other out leaving the runway clear.

This is an Air Traffic Control system, once it’s on that a ground traffic control system.

No, no, it’s sorting the crashes. If it had directed the planes to other runways, then there would be more crashes to clean up.
