Anyone with actual AI knowledge / expertise, beyond buzz words / marketing blurbs, care to share some deeper insights in to this type of technology, recommend further reading...? (I'm about to crack open the AI for Dummies book, all the headlines we see daily casts AI as a 'magical' force!)
AI co-pilot enhances human precision for safer aviation
Meet the Air-Guardian, a system developed by researchers at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL). As modern pilots grapple with an onslaught of information from multiple monitors, especially during critical moments, Air-Guardian acts as a proactive co-pilot; a partnership between human and machine, rooted in understanding attention.

I know this might be a response beyond the readers digest version you’re asking for but here goes. This is straight out of an informative paper I wrote on the subject for resiliency models for unmanned aerial systems awhile back. As one might guess there’s more to “AI” than can be explained on this board.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a multifaceted field that builds upon principles of machine learning, neural networks, and algorithmic design. The essence of AI lies in its ability to learn and improve from experience without explicit programming. This self-improvement mechanism is primarily driven by machine learning, where systems adapt based on data input. Neural networks, particularly those used in deep learning, are computational models inspired by human brain structures, consisting of interconnected nodes that process information. The evolution of AI traces back to the mid-20th century, initiated by concepts like the Turing Test and symbolic AI. The current resurgence and advancements are a result of a confluence of factors: vast amounts of data, refined algorithms, and enhanced computational power.
As AI technology advances, it's imperative to recognize its inherent challenges and broader societal implications. Overfitting is a prevalent issue where models become too adapted to training data, losing their ability to generalize to new data. Another significant concern is bias: if AI systems are trained on non-representative data, they might perpetuate existing prejudices. Beyond these technical challenges, the opacity of some deep learning models raises questions about their explainability, often referring to them as "black boxes." The ethical dimensions of AI extend further, encompassing potential job displacement, misuse in surveillance, and other critical areas. As AI becomes more intertwined with daily life, addressing these challenges and understanding the ethical dimensions becomes paramount for its responsible deployment.
