Paper Proposes Decision-Assurance Layer for AI-Assisted Flight Planning in ATM
A new arXiv preprint argues that generative AI is already being used informally in air traffic management for tasks like drafting flight plans, interpreting trajectories, and checking constraints. The authors propose a decision-assurance layer intended to provide oversight for these AI-assisted workflows before they are relied on operationally. The work is a research proposal rather than a deployed system.
