The problem is with humans it's fairly clear most of the time who made the error. It's either human 1 or human 2 99% of the time. With self driving cars it becomes software 1 or software 2... And at that point it's extremely difficult where to point the blame.
- oldmanjay 11y agodo you care to fill in the logic between your start and end? I don't really follow the leap. It seems the tools we use to determine fault now, frail though they may be, are equally sufficient no matter which bundles of electrical fields are controlling things.
- Bjartr 11y agoOn the flip side, with software you have logs. It's much more clear what actually happened and when, who acted first etc.
- dmm 11y ago(With the enormous safety benefits of self-driving cars) Maybe it won't be worth it to assign blame? It's happened before with no-fault insurance.
- runamok 11y agoWhy would it be harder? Most likely there will be laws to disclose telemetry, video, etc. in the event of an accident. Most likely an audit trail of what the sensor inputs were and what the decision made was, etc. More likely there will just be no-fault where both parties pay unless there is a spate of accidents that point to software/hardware issues.
