This is such a horrible idea. I don't care how smart a computer is, at least two experienced pilots are indispensable.

What? Cat III autoland? No way! Operating without the backup safety of a flight engineer? No Way!! Crossing an ocean on a two-engine airplane? ABSOLUTELY NO WAY!!
To leave the ground at all in a heavier than air craft. NO WAY!
Fully docking remote control cargo trips to SpaceLab and back? No Way!
