Would you say that if that was your family in front of that car ? Very ignorant comment.

- magashna 7y agoIt's how we've arrived at where we are now, and why you have all the things you take for granted. Buildings, planes, borders, they all had a human expense.
- mschuster91 7y agoA classic "tragedy of the commons" problem. Inarguably having only self-driving shared vehicles on the street will be massively positive to society (public space now reserved for parking will be public space, accidents due to drivers being tired/under the influence will not be a thing any more, resource waste for cars standing around 99.99% of their lifetime will not be a thing any more), but there will be a not-so-small amount of sacrifices on the way (be it people dying or being injured by prototypes, or massive job losses because the demand for cars will drop). Air travel was horribly accident prone too, for decades, and now it is one of the safest forms of travel in developed countries - and for electric/autonomous travel, it will be the same.
- cryptozeus 7y agoYeh agree with both of your comments but is this the way to justify the error that caused someone’s life ? Almost makes it sound like “oh well it happens”. Comments like these are showing why software like that was rushed to test against live human. What about showing some empathy?
