The bit in the article about being unable to communicate with the car made me think of the LLM wave. A screen on the front and back of the car could provide feedback about what it’s currently trying to do in a situation like this rather than just blinking hazard lights. Using voice recognition to feedback it can interact with people yelling at it, giving at least a qualitative feedback loop to other users on the road. The dispiriting nature of encountering a blocking car and not knowing what it’s planning to do or responding to honks etc is something that can now be fixed.
