Computers don't right the rules, people do and guess who works in the FAA? Former pilots.
Autonomous drones can already fly but they block off dozens of sq.miles for them to fly. Anyway there is legislation going up to allow drones in controlled airspace.
Guess what? It requires each one to get the same type rating and hours as a commercial pilot. Which increases the cost significantly.
