And if we provide the correct response do we get peanuts dispensed to us or if we get it wrong do we get an electric shock

Nope, I ( and I suspect most people here, and I suspect the regulatory authorities ) do not want the machine at some arbitrary point in the flight ( when we might be up to our ears resolving non-technical issues), deciding to blank displays or fail the autothrottle or similar so I can do some manual flying...as for course changes, ATC already throw those at us evey time we fly.

Leave that sort of "gaming" for the sim...
