Some people think that a self driving car needs to perform just well enough to meet some average metric at which point its shortcomings are considered justified. Would you drive with a human that could fail so spectacularly? As least they can rationalize their decision. My opinion is this: we're missing something big. Current weak AI strategies may be sufficient in some domains, but until the essence of consciousness can be defined, general AI (and AI I would trust my life with) is out of the question.
