I find these kind of discussions about AI cars odd... Do AI cars really have to choose who to potentially wound or kill in a collision situation? Should the AI analyze absolutely everything before making any control choices whatsoever? Why? What if the time spent on this analysis will lead to more casualties? Humans act in a random way when faced with a vehicle collision situation. Some freeze and fail to act, some divert to either left/right, some hit the brakes too softly, some hit the brakes hard, some accelerate by mistake (!) and so on. Fully autonomous computers driving cars, if it ever will happen outside of more or less ideal road and weather situations [x], will be like humans, except with more deterministic (and limited) choices of action. I have a hard time believing there will be rationalizing over the perceived value of potential victims or anything of that kind. [x] I mean conditions of high winds with watery sleet and darkness sprinkled with water glares, near zero C, very bad visiblity, in a situation when my car might say "sensors blocked". Edit: footnote. I still don't know how to do footnotes properly.
