I would argue that AI systems should be able to handle sudden and unexpected events like system malfunction or failure. > At very least I would want to add code to recognize these special braking events and then I would need to test this code... which of course would be impossible to do in simulation Why? Does Volvos system raise events differently in context? I would imagine it's pretty simple to simulate an event by driving the car into a wall and capturing a dump of the CAN bus. The autonomous system could take the Volvo system firing as an event like anything else that it needs to reconcile in the system. If anything the autonomous system could be used to improve Volvo's system by capturing extensive data dumps of the events leading up to misfire events.
