I see a cost issue, easy to justify a full investigation every time a commercial plane crashes, how do you do a full investigation every time somebody crashes a car or is crashed into. How do you get the improvement loop that the airline industry had?
- Someone1234 7y agoI thought the topic was AutoPilot crashes, not all car crashes. Is AutoPilot crashing enough to be cost prohibitive?
- Piskvorrr 7y agoNot currently. If we get to mixed 50/50 traffic...possibly. (Saying "but won't happen, because magic future technology" would be literal handwaving)
- jfk13 7y agoIf we required full investigations now, while the numbers are small enough for it to be feasible, then perhaps by the time we get to 50/50 traffic, the technology will be that much better.
- netsharc 7y agoAt least plane crashes are usually mechanical and not software, or it's straightforward software (hello MCAS), investigating a machine learning's system behavior ("what input lead it produce this output?") sounds like a more expensive problem.
- mywacaday 7y agoUntil you look you don't know if i was hardware, software, road conditions or user, unless you look its just a a pile of twisted metal.
- wongarsu 7y agoWe already investigate nearly every car crash, it's just that we usually find one of the drivers at fault instead of one of the car manufacturers. The resources are there, currently provided mostly through police and insurance agencies.
