Ha, what? Tesla Autopilot cannot kill anyone. The drivers of those cars are responsible, not Tesla. You are making things up. Tesla has been very clear that you are responsible for the vehicle when Autopilot is engaged. It is not a self-driving car.
Also this is nonsense:
> It's misleading because of the units its presented in: deaths/year. Those units measure (part of) the cost of driving on the human race. They do not represent how good or bad people are at driving.
Deaths/year is a perfectly valid way to measure and discover that humans are bad at driving. If humans were not bad at driving, that number would be a lot lower, close to 0.
Also,
> However, when you say "people are bad at driving, and kill 35k people/year", it sounds like it's a low bar for self-driving cars to pass.
No, it does not sound like a low bar to pass. Driving is hard.
