I'll use the example of the AH-64D. When flying at night, the cockpit lighting of the CPG, can often prove a discomfort/inefficiency. Instead of creating more "specific" commands, why not have the AI (regardless of seat), copy the cockpit light setting which the human pilot uses?

 

All elements of tge cockpit would be tied together in a logical way, such that if the human pilot turned down the brightness of the radios, the AI would (20 sec. delay) adjust theirs to the same level. The main question is what if the elements within the cockpits are different. Well, in AH-64D the pilot has two MFDs while the CPG has three. Solution, tie the middle MFD to either the right or the left one (two MFDs adjusted by AI for one pilot MFD). What if e.g. the pilot doesn't have at all a function that the CPG has? Simple, connect that CPG lighting function to something general - flood lights, instrumentation lights, etc...

 

I'm thinking generally for all multi-seat (in cockpit) modules, this should be a common solution. It is really needed.
