Tim Clark, CEO of Emirates Airlines, believes that artificial intelligence could replace real airline pilots – but not in his lifetime.
“You’ll be able to see a single-pilot plane,” said the 73-year-old CNBC Hadley Gamble on Tuesday, despite growing concerns about what AI is able to accomplishing.
While Clark believes there’ll still be one man within the cockpit, no matter advances in AI, he also encourages people to “tame” and “use” the brand new technology, not “fear it.”
“Can an airplane fly fully mechanically? Yes, perhaps, the technology is now at a high level,” he stated. “[But] For my part, there’ll all the time be someone on board the plane.”
