Look, incidents happen all the time in any industry. And for the five examples of human error you have thousands of examples where humans performed very well.

Computers are not infailable either. So while they add a lot of safety features and ease the workload of the pilots, they should not have final authority over pilot actions. 737 Max is a prime example of why.
- shiroiuma 3y ago737MAX is what happens when you have a bad plane design because of bad regulations, and corporate execs intentionally make the existence of a plane system a secret from pilots so that they don't need retraining. An incident like that should result in prison time, if not outright execution. It is not a good example of the downfalls of an added safety feature; the MCAS system wasn't a safety feature at all, it was much more like the emissions-cheating "feature" in VW's "dieselgate" scandal.
