No, you won't.

WoAI only adds airlines to your sim. It self installs so there is no chance of a mistake.

The reason you lost the AI in FSX is that the WOAI traffic BGL files are
FS9 format, compatible with TTools. In FSX, if an FS9 format traffic
BGL is present, the FSX format BGL traffic files are disabled.

You must run the WOAI, or any other traffic BGL created with TTools,
through one of the conversion utilities to put them into FSX compatible
form. Then they will co-exist just fine with the default FSX files.
