"Computers should never overrule manual controls." You should probably avoid Airbuses in that case, since (the opposite of) that is a central design principle.

"Computers should never overrule manual controls."
You should probably avoid Airbuses in that case, since (the opposite of) that is a central design principle.
And Airbus has arguably won the design wars, since Boeing is adopting their approach, just in a half-arsed and potentially dangerous way.
- nas 8y agoYup. The question is not if computer automation can be made 100% reliable. Instead, can it be reliable enough such that there are fewer accidents vs manual controls? The answer seems to be yes. So the trend is to more computer automation, not less. I think people who think we can go back to fully manual controls are living in a fantasy.
