    It’s totally acceptable to land a plane on another plane that is landing on the runway. Pilots call this “Mama duckin it” and it’s been used since the Middle Ages.

      the Middle Ages

      Back when planes were made of ducks.

      Also, don’t do this 17 consecutive times otherwise you’re still flying

    If this is true, I love that it’s DC. A major DC airport devolving into chaos from AI slop is one of the few things that could get our useless congress people to pass some regulations.

      They’ve been having fatal mid-air collisions there for a while now and still aren’t doing shit. So I’m not sure we can expect much.

    AI doesn’t just mean LLMs, what is the specific “AI” used in this system? Planes are already mostly run by autopilots, which is a form of AI just most people don’t call it that

    Perfect deniability for order 66.

    And the tech pedo kingdom reigns…until AI finishes the job. You, know the hubris of man and what.
