In contrast, the U.S. has been slower due to conflicting interests and regulatory battles.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Adapting Training for AAM:<\/strong> Adams warns that Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) sectors need lessons from traditional training focusing on rigorous curriculum development and realistic training scenarios for operating in diverse environments like urban canyons and vertiports.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Underestimated Trends:<\/strong> Adams believes that the broader adoption of AI-driven training is underestimated, noting that successful implementation requires proper research, strategic partnerships, and patience. Similarly, VR and MR are advancing rapidly, especially in military funding.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Call for an International Standards Body:<\/strong> Adams calls for a professional standards organization modeled after the Society of Automotive Engineers to commission research validating effective pilot training methods and to fill gaps in international regulations and training standards.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These points encapsulate the main takeaways from Rick Adams&#8217; discussion on AI trends, regulatory challenges, and future directions in aviation training and simulation technology.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expert Interview: AI, AAM, eVTOL\u2026and More https:\/\/www.aviationtoday.com\/2026\/06\/04\/expert-interview-ai-aam-evtoland-more\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-04 10:37:00 Source Domain: www.aviationtoday.com Here&#8217;s&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":226023,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.aviationtoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/rick-adams-att-eletter-image-june-2026.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-226022","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/226022"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=226022"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/226022\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":226024,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/226022\/revisions\/226024"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/226023"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=226022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=226022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=226022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
