Listen "The Future of Flight Isn't Autonomous It's Human - with Yemaya Bordain"
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Yemaya Bordain, President of the Americas at Daedalean, is helping build the first AI systems ever certified for safety-critical aircraft. However, her story begins long before the advent of aviation AI. She was the first Black woman to earn a PhD in Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois. Her mission? To make sure she wouldn't be the last. In this conversation, we talk about: -What AI on aircraft actually means (it's not what you think) -Why human judgment still beats machines -She has experience breaking barriers in academia. -And how trust—not tech—is the foundation of autonomy This episode is about more than flight. It's about legacy, systems leadership, and building a future that doesn't leave people behind. Hosted by Eric J.
