> Test the emergency override that is supposed to take control of the controls away from the computer/AI and give control of the controls back to you. Test it again. Insist that the design include wires that connect the computer/AI to the controls so that you can cut the wires and get control.

> Also, find the OFF switch for the computer/AI. Shutdown, hell, I want that puppy off NOW!
