"“The field of image recognition has been revolutionized in the last few years,” Yosinski says. “[Machine learning researchers] now have a lot of stuff that works, but what we don’t have, what we still need, is a better understanding of what’s really going on inside these neural networks.”
Worth mentioning that current digital weather avoidance systems are entirely radar based and are designed to be used in conjunction with human pilots. You would design them differently if that was not the case, for example adding visual detection.
That article you link to is very interesting, but I don't think it has relevance to this discussion. They are deliberately trying to find ways to confuse cameras to aid understanding of neural nets. Not really the same thing as humans having inbuilt flaws.
Of course they are not really flaws, we are merely optimised to be on land at slow speed so all our senses are adapted to that environment.
Some of these many optimisations in vision, balance etc are a hinderance in the air.
