The F-35 promised a major a leap in technological capability. However, technology is not at the point where it deliver on that promise. As a software engineer, I can relate to the difficulty of joining multiple sources of data. This is something that AI can potentially do very well. I foresee the next generation of F-series aircrafts having something more akin to an AI co-pilot. This would prevent information overload. Instead of a pilot ingesting hundreds of data points, they could have a simple interface and all the cohesion handled by the AI.
