FAA tests AI-powered traffic planning at DC-area airports

TL;DR Summary
The Federal Aviation Administration will deploy its cloud-based SMART AI tool at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, Washington Dulles International Airport, and Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport to help direct traffic by analyzing schedules, weather, and airport conditions. The aim is to augment existing traffic-management systems (not replace air traffic controllers or solve broad shortages) and improve route and departure planning as the rollout begins at the three DC-area airports.
