And we currently see issues even with current (relatively) modest automation systems that are designed to prevent pilot error.
There's way too many failures with current systems to even talk about full automation yet, in my opinion.
Let's get current automation subsystems to much lower error rates first.
I've never seen a fuel injection system on a car suddenly stop delivering fuel for no apparent reason, then startup again. The computers for such systems in cars are tremendously over-engineered.
I can't understand why we accept less for aircraft systems today. This didn't used to be the case.
