You'd certainly want to know how it would troubleshoot a non-standard problem - presumably there will be a data-link backup to allow input from a ground station in such cases (but this could not be guaranteed).
That said (and playing devil's advocate to some extent) it would be considerably less likely to make a total hash of a straightforward failure (or no failure at all) resulting in the destruction of the aircraft as has happened with human crews on more than one occasion! It's also not going to spill coffee on the avionics panel, drop its camera onto the sidestick or let its nephew have a go at the controls. (It won't try to pull the cabin crew either - although since it's French that will probably be an optional add-on!
