  • Sumário

    Only, they haven’t lost control of the aircraft at all: one simple manoeuvre could avoid disaster…

    In the age of artificial intelligence, we often compare humans and computers, asking ourselves which is “better”. But is this even the right question? The case of Air France Flight 447 suggests it isn't - and that the consequences of asking the wrong question are disastrous.
