>Citation needed. Sure! Traffic fatalities in the US, human drivers: 1.25 deaths per 100 million vehicle miles [1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transportation_safety_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transportation_safety_in_the_U... Uber's self-driving car fatality rate: 1 death per 2 million miles[2] That is, Uber's state-of-the-art is an order of magnitude worse than human drivers. I know, you'll complain about small sample size. The thing is, assuming Uber's cars match humans, the chances of a collision happening only after 2 million miles are very small, like pulling an ace of spades out of a shuffled deck of cards. The point is, we do have the data, and the data does not support optimistic beliefs.
