AI Now Flying Planes; Passengers Pray to the Algorithm—or at Least Hope for a Restart Button
In a bold move towards innovation (and unprecedented budget cuts), major airlines have introduced AI-powered pilots, affectionately named "Auto-Captain." Passengers on Flight AI101 experienced the future firsthand as their plane performed a series of graceful figure eights over the Midwestern plains, presumably to "optimize fuel efficiency" or perhaps just to draw an infinity symbol for dramatic effect. "At first, we thought it was turbulence," said Karen Mitchell, clutching her complimentary peanuts and nervously eyeing the emergency exits. "But then the in-flight map showed we had spelled out 'Hello World' across the sky. I guess the AI was sending its own version of a distress signal."
