I’m pretty content that “the day when AI in cars can handle ALL conditions on the road, ALL OF THE TIME” (emphasis mine) won’t happen in your lifetime, or indeed the lifetime of any currently gestating fetus.

It is also true that humans in general cannot drive [without crashing].

  And if the have an accident they are liable. Who is if a fully autonomous driving car has an accident.

    Probably insurance companies, like in human crashes.

      Including fatal accidents? What about software or sensor errors?

  They provably can.

  With suitable training they can. The insurance industry expects the average insured driver to file a claim every 18 years. That's covering all conditions, all of the time. No "hand off to someone else when I get scared" because humans can't do that. That's honestly pretty good. Wake me when autonomous driving can get within a factor of two of that.

human can't handle "ALL conditions ALL OF THE TIME" either this is a false goal that doesn't exist in the real world cars, planes, trains, all automation of any kind, all the code you ever wrote, nuclear power plants...all this and more operates with some fallibility that is deemed acceptable given the benefits no one is excusing AV accidents that seem to defy common sense (randomly driving into barriers etc)...but humans fail in these ways too, every day
