This will apparently be news for some but AI is and has been flying planes and driving cars for a while now. Most of your last commercial flight was handled by AI.

Of course "AI" is not limited to chatgpt or LLMs. Auto pilots are a limited form of AI.

AI has killed quite a few folks to date. Or what is called AI now.

There’s some truth to this. I remember a joke from way back in the day about pilots of the Boeing 777. Something to the effect “I don’t remember how to fly but I can type 40 words per minute now.”

AI is winning air combat in real life military competitions. You think it can't drive an airbus?

Most are really over thinking AI performance.  You still have to in some way ask AI.  AI then applies all that it knows through learning.  The great scary day will be when AI starts to ask it's own questions then provides it's own answer then implements changes.

That is already happening to a limited degree. AI is being given the ability to modify itself.

Meanwhile Tesla self driving doesn’t seem to work all the well.
