The bit with the person in a wheelchair chasing a duck with a broom is great. And it illustrates simultaneously two things: there is no hope that an AI driver will ever understand everything that is going on around it. But fortunately, you don't have to understand exactly a broom-wielding duck-chasing wheelchair rider to drive carefully around it.

And it illustrates simultaneously two things: there is no hope that an AI driver will ever understand everything that is going on around it I don't see what grounds you can have for saying that. We don't know if we'll be able to develop human-level AI (or beyond). Another point is that I'm sure there are lots of unusual circumstances that human drivers sometimes face that they're poor at getting a clear snap-judgement of -- of what it is they're seeing and of how it will move (and thus how they'll need to react to it).
