Topic: Software Glitch

1 chapters across the catalog

A major software glitch grounded all U.S. domestic flights, affecting systems used to warn pilots of dangerous conditions. Jones links this event to a broader "post-industrial playbook" aimed at removing humans from decision-making processes. He criticizes legislation supported by airlines to reduce pilot staffing on large aircraft, arguing that over-reliance on autopilot is degrading pilot skills and increasing the risk of catastrophic failures.
