That's what regulation is for, we have a good example in the FAA here, now we'll need something like the FAVA (Federal Autonomous Vehicle Administration) to design regulation for autonomous cars.
We have a lot of precedent at this point on how to handle new ambiguous human advancements. Typically it goes, discovery, wild west, blood, regulation, standard part of society. Rinse and repeat.
- add-sub-mul-div 3y agoThank you, regulation, I forgot to mention it. That's another pillar of the argument that we know from history that we can't rely on our current structures regarding how we receive SV's rate and style of "innovation".
- ianbutler 3y agoThat's not really true though. Tesla for instance is regulated like a car manufacturer, not an sv app developer. This is bit of a false equivalence you're putting forth.
- AlotOfReading 3y agoHave you ever dealt with automotive regulation? There are standards, sure, but most of the actual verification in the US basically amounts to "trust me bro" until there's overwhelming evidence of an active, fatal safety flaw. It's retroactive and increasingly inadequate to how modern vehicles are designed.
- ianbutler 3y agoI have not, but I was assuming it was better than regulation of apps, of which there is almost no regulation. Sad to hear it may be otherwise. I was hoping it had the same track record as aviation regulation which is pretty dang good.
