I'd hate to be flying into controlled airspace when the AI starts
hallucinating.

Regulation and concern over safety would be the road block. You're
absolutely right, it would be a PERFECT place for it. It never gets
tired, never hung over, any mistake can be fixed with extra code.
It was easier to install traffic lights to control traffic when there
wasn't already a system in place.

One area where AI could be very useful is in air traffic control,
especially at a towered airport. It could listen and track the
situation. If a controller forgot they had cleared a plane to
“line up and wait” and then cleared another to land on that same
runway it could raise an alert. I have had this exact thing
happen to me. They were trying to mate me with a landing lear
jet. I personally reminded them I was still waiting take off
clearance. They urgently told me to exit runway as fast as
possible. I hit the grass between runways. Not my fault. Should
have made the Lear go around.
Since the language of ATC is standardized, the phrases are
supposed to be said the exact same way every time, AI should be
easily trained to learn what was being said.
Same way for ground control. It could listen to the taxi
clearances and then monitor ground radar and alert if a pilot
missed a turn. If I was younger and smarter I would work on
developing this app. Sounds like a good idea for a startup if
someone is not already working on it.
