I don't know about that. I do think that if, say, Google operated a spectrum of 1,000 self-driving algorithms, and knew that some were safer than others, a judge would take a very dim view to knowingly deploying less safe cars than others. And even from a business standpoint, it wouldn't be good business to have less safe (aka, higher liability) cars on the road.
- eru 5y agoWhy would Google know that some of them are less safe than others? Just have variations that don't dominate each other. Variant A could be better at some things, and variant B could be better at other things, etc. (Otherwise, we should use your argument to only allow exactly one company with the 'best' system on the road. Instead of allowing competition.) Google could even officially outsource the different variants to different nominally independent companies, if that's what's legally required to not get the whole fleet grounded.
