- Ycdr4thfdd 3y agoYes, a few people will die. More than a few. But I would bet anything that even in the short-term, and especially in the long-term, far fewer will die than if there were human drivers in those cars.
- spaceman_2020 3y agoI’d still much rather be killed by a fellow human than a corporation controlled entity. “Greater good” has been the excuse for some astonishingly bad ideas.
- 93po 3y agoOver a million people a year die from traffic related incidents. It's arguably the most dangerous things many people do aside from poor diets and smoking. We need to bring this number down, and quickly. It's not going to happen as long as humans are driving.
- spaceman_2020 3y agoAgree, but the solution can't involve giving away autonomy to private corporations.
