> I can't imagine commercial aircraft would use a neural net. What happened if one crashed? They would analyze the data and ask questions like, Q: "What happened?" A: "I don't know" Q: "Can we fix it so it doesn't happen again?" A: "I don't know".

We already do. The pilot and co-pilot(s). Though I get what you're saying, I just find it humorous that we would worry about it in such manner.

AI neural nets aren't quite there yet. But we attribute that great unknown to vague catch-all "human error" all the time. I suspect one day we will simply attribute AI screw ups to "computer error" or something like that.
