Funny how AI risk is seen as this big threat, but self-driving cars apparently can't avoid crashing.

- zaroth 4y agoIn all fairness, the human driven ones crash an awful lot too! Keep in mind that truly reliable and robust AI driving will save 10s of millions of lives and trillions of dollars of avoided economic losses. Creating AI that can drive a car that virtually never crashes will be the pinnacle of software engineering, and a turning point in our civilization. The savings in blood and money can’t come soon enough, but otherwise it’s basically a Very Good Thing it’s going to take a little while to get it really working. We’re not really ready for the implications of software that can reason that well in the real world.
