An aviation expert said the FAA’s nationwide ground stop on Friday left travelers in limbo and revealed a troubling reality, on the same day the agency reportedly launched a new AI tool.CNN aviation analyst Miles O’Brien told anchor Jake Tapper that the FAA’s system was “already bursting at the seams” and that some of its technology dates back to World War II. The agency issued the rare stoppage citing communications problems. "They've got floppy disks, they've got paper strips, and now they're talking about putting AI on top of it," O'Brien said. "It's like putting a rocket booster on a horse and buggy. You got to be really careful on how you manage this whole thing."A cyber attack has not been ruled out, O'Brien explained. "We have an incredibly vulnerable system," O'Brien added, saying it could take hours — or longer — for the system to begin running again."This is this is a huge mess. It will take a tremendous amount of time to unwind all this," O'Brien said. "This ballet of flights that goes back and forth and through the heroic actions of air traffic controllers working with this old system make it all work. But when it stops, it gets ugly really quickly."

President Donald Trump will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin next Thursday in China for talks expected to center on a nuclear arms deal Trump has sought since his first term, the New York Post reported in an exclusive Friday.“It will be the first-ever trilateral meeting between leaders of the three countries,” the Post’s Steven Nelson reported. The summit is expected to take place on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference in Shenzhen. For Trump, the meeting offers a chance to turn a year-old proposal into negotiations with both Beijing and Moscow. He has argued that maintaining vast nuclear stockpiles is unnecessarily expensive.“Trump already all-but confirmed plans for the summit among the three nations that control most of the world’s nuclear weapons,” according to the Post.The sit-down could also delve into other global issues. A White House official told the outlet leaders could also discuss the war in Iran and North Korea. Russia’s war in Ukraine could come up as well, though the Post reported the issue was “not a top agenda item.”Trump previewed the possible meeting Sunday. “We’ll talk a lot of things, including denuclearization,” he told reporters. “But we’ll be talking a lot of things. We’re trying to end the war in Iran, and we’re doing well.”
