The flight system allows a plane to be remote operated by a pilot on the ground, which could streamline pilot airline operations in the future.

    Yeah autonomous flight has been a thing for 50ish years. But there will always be edge cases. Plus A lot of the safety we have in aviation that we have today is due to the two pilot system where every action is checked by your fellow pilot. I can’t see a near future where two pilots in the cockpit are not required for safety.
