AI in aviation systems

An example of the importance of thorough testing and oversight in aviation is the tragic case of the Boeing 737 MAX. Due to coding errors in the plane's software, specifically its manoeuvring characteristics augmentation system, the aircraft faced unforeseen complications that led to two catastrophic crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia. Untested systems have real costs. The Boeing 737 MAX crashes show how software errors can be catastrophic. AI needs similar rigour—especially in healthcare and education, where biased models deepen inequalities. #safetybydesign #AItesting #aviationlessons #edtech #healthtech
