House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Democrats have requested a Government Accountability Office review of the FAA's AI-powered SMART air traffic control tool due to concerns over its safety and reliability in congested airspace, following its recent deployment around Washington, D.C.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Aviation Tech.
