I think we already have one of those... it's called Airbus.

TAKING THE PILOT OUT OF FLYING
While many of us are somewhat familiar with TCAS (Traffic Alert
and Collision Avoidance System) and GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning
System) some new high-tech in-cockpit technology promises to go a
step beyond the current level of safety-conscious warnings.
Honeywell Aerospace is studying whether to produce a product that
would take over the aircraft's flight controls from a pilot who
did not respond to alert and audio warnings from an impending
in-flight collision. Honeywell spokesman Ron Crotty told The
Wichita Eagle the device would return control authority to the
pilot once the danger threat was eliminated.
