"Researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST) are working to develop a humanoid pilot that can fly an aircraft without modifying the cockpit. Called "Pibot," the robot has articulated arms and fingers that can interact with flight controls with great precision and dexterity. It also comes with camera "eyes" that help the robot monitor the internal and external conditions of the aircraft while in control."
the KAIST team’s humanoid pilot is still under development but it can already remember Jeppeson charts from all around the world, which is impossible for human pilots to do, and fly without error. In particular, it can make use of recent ChatGPT technology to remember the full Quick Reference Handbook (QRF) and respond immediately to various situations, as well as calculate safe routes in real time based on the flight status of the aircraft, with emergency response times quicker than human pilots.

Meet Pibot: Korea's LLM-powered smart robotic pilot - Interesting Engineering
Called "Pibot," this humanoid robot integrates large language models to help it fly any aircraft as well as, if not better than, a human pilot.
