That line of reasoning gets a little weird, your car already has computers required for it to function, so you are already trusting computers not to crash to not kill you.
The software stack in this case is at least two orders of magnitude more complex than an ECU and ABS controller, though.
- HellDunkel 5y agoYes, in a modern car you have computer running life critical software. But these components have redundacies and a very very limited scope of operation. With self driving there is one central decision maker where it is hard to come up with redundacy. If it fails that is a major problem. If for instance your ABS fails (happed to a friend on motocyle) you are still braking.
