The more GenAI videos I get sent, the more I feel Miyazaki was right

Thinking about programmers losing their coding skills because of their reliance on AI tools made me wonder if there was some other industry where heavy automation led to concerns over loss of skills. And yes, there is: airplane pilots.

They train manual flight maneuvers regularly to preserve pilot skills, because when the automation fails is precisely when you need a skilled operator.

“The general trend is to use the maximum level of automation during flight; however, this might contribute to a less active participation in manual aircraft handling and, at times, to an over-reliance on automation,” says the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). “It is important to seek a balance in training of automation and manual flying skills to address the situation where, if automation systems do not work as intended, pilots are adequately skilled and confident to take manual control of the aircraft.”
