FAA Deploys SMART AI System Across All 22 US Air Traffic Centers
The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said on November 10 that SMART, its artificial intelligence-based air traffic flow management system, now operates in all 22 regional air traffic control centers across the country.
The technology therefore covers the airspace handled by these centers throughout the United States.
The rollout went ahead even though lawmakers had asked for it to be paused. They wanted to first receive explanations about how the system's safety checks are carried out.
