Self driving cars are robots period
When in doubt, follow the 3 laws for robots
First generation of the self driving vehicle should focus on safe driving in comparison to typical human drivers.
Like we have carpool/hov+ lanes we will start having autonomous lanes
I expect cargo trucks would switch to autonomous due mundane nature of the work and long driving hours
- krapp 10y ago> When in doubt, follow the 3 laws for robots Asimov's 3 Laws were a plot device, not a serious attempt to codify ethics. They were designed to fail for dramatic effect, and his stories were about them failing constantly, because they presented the apparent paradox of a perfectly rational being appearing to behave irrationally. The only law Asimov's robots actually adhere to is the Law of Unintended Consequences - and I believe this is the actual lesson for autonomous car engineers. The more powerful an AI is, and the more complex it is, and the more likely it is to fail in ways that can't be predicted.
