 Yikes.
 
 What does this technology mean for me, a surgeon?  SAD, superior automated
 doctor?  Inset a CD and a robot does your colonoscopy, IMAX style?

 The Super Auto Pilot (SAP) is just the next step in the evolution of the
 three axis auto pilot. The strength of the servos will be within the pilot's
 ability to overpower them, there will be an off switch and a circuit breaker
 to pull if the off switch does not work. This is far less visionary than
 true fly by wire which has been around since at least the Apollo program.
