And because it's accurate the AI will know how to weigh that accurate information against other accurate information in such a way that it will give you a great answer without any help. In other words: any amateur will be able to do aircraft maintenance! What can go wrong? /s

You know, if I had to make that bet, I would choose airline maintenance manuals as the test case.

Have you seen the maintenance manuals on an aircraft production line? They're in 3-ring binders, so you can take out and replace pages. They are constantly being corrected and updated. The industry recognizes they're never at 100% (and to their credit mitigation is part of the process).
Itβs more true in aviation than anywhere else (except maybe space flight), but still.
