Default Uncrewed aerial vehicles: no pilot, no problem?

In article ,

Here we are, back on the assertion that remote control of airplanes requires
an advanced degree of artificial intelligence - NOT.

It has been successfully demonstrated since WWII.


It's not the autonomous =control=, it is the decisionmaking that goes
with operating in a crowded VFR environment, that requires the advanced
sensors and AI. Has that been demonstrated?


No - re-reading the thread, I'm probably off-track on this one.
I thought we were once again talking about externalized control of aircraft,
not fully autonomous control of unmanned vehicles. Since the subject this time
around appears to be the latter, I must agree with you (ane Niel) that the
problem becomes complex. My apologies for the mis-read.
