AI PILOT COULD EVENTUALLY PASS THE TURING TEST

Artificial intelligence can safely avoid collisions, predict the intent of other aircraft, track aircraft and coordinate with their actions, and communicate over the radio with pilots and air traffic controllers. The researchers aim to develop the AI so the behaviors of their system will be indistinguishable from those of a human pilot.

Jean Oh, an associate research professor at CMU’s Robotics Institute (RI) and a part of the AI pilot team, stated, “We believe we could eventually pass the Turing Test,” alluding to the test of an AI’s capacity to demonstrate intelligent behavior comparable to a human.

The AI employs both vision and natural language to convey its intent with other aircraft, whether flown or not, to engage with them as a human pilot would. To navigate safely and under social norms, adopt this conduct. Researchers trained the AI on data gathered at the Allegheny County Airport and the Pittsburgh-Butler Regional Airport, which included air traffic patterns, photographs of planes, and radio broadcasts, to achieve this implicit coordination.

Similar to a human pilot, the AI employs six cameras and a computer vision system to identify surrounding planes. Its automatic voice recognition feature uses NLP methods to comprehend incoming radio transmissions and speak verbally with pilots and air traffic controllers.

The development of autonomous aircraft will increase the possibilities for drones, air taxis, helicopters, and other aircraft to operate, often without a pilot at the controls, moving people and goods, inspecting infrastructure, treating fields to protect crops, and monitoring for poaching or deforestation. However, the area where these aircraft must fly is already congested with small aircraft, medical helicopters, and other aircraft.
