As of right now, according to Axios, the concern isn't keeping us up in the air. The concern is, can AI actually take off and, most frighteningly of all, land us safely? That being said, look out for our new movie, AI On A Plane where AI takes over a plane and (fingers crossed) both Sam Jackson and Gerard Butler team up to take down the digital enemy the only way they know how: Analog punches and kicks.
