Why do you think this is going to replace air traffic control work? It’s picking which gate to park the plane at. This was done by airline and airport operations teams, not ATC. Imagine if you could automatically pick gates to reduce the time a plane spends taxiing and/or minimize time passengers spend walking. That’s 100% a useful application for computer optimization algorithms. Humans aren’t going to do that better and it’s not a function of safety that tower or ground control needs to do.

all that’s fine and good, but one just needs to see your username to fathom what could potentially go wrong.
