So if a bug is found such as the fact a particular pattern that happens to be the logo of an up-and-coming boy band crashes the car's visual software we just have to tell everyone to stay home and not use their self driving cars until they've installed the fix and hope people actually receive the message before tragedy happens?
- amelius 5y agoWhat would you suggest otherwise? Allow an update to be rushed? The cars should be grounded anyway (or self-driving should be disabled). This can be done remotely in a safe way. Any new update to the software should be tested by the DoT for at least X miles and Y hours before it can be installed. The installation of the update should be done by an agency of the DoT to prevent car manufacturers from cheating (and we know they will cheat when they can find a way, see VW scandal). Let's not allow the car industry to be run like the software industry (!!!)
