I feel like all of those questions have existing answers in the automotive industry. Modern cars include so much software that there are very few legal angles that full autonomy adds. >Should self driving car algorithms be standardized across the industry for safety? Just like every other safety relevant feature of my car; Baseline requirements and tests standardised, implementation open to innovation and competition. >Because of the nature of saving lives, should self driving software be open for inspection and review in ways other software isn't? Same rules as the software of my ABS system, or of my airbag: it's up to the manufacturer, in practise nobody cares. >If people modify the software in the car, who is responsible? If I modify my brakes or my steering system I'm responsible for any damages caused by this modification. Why would software be different. >Can car "owners" legally modify code when safety and lives are of concern? Can I legally modify my breaking systems? Yes, but it has to fulfill the same road safety regulations, and frostin depending on what I do getting all required certifications might be impractical.
