In the Netflix series "Upload" (about minds living an after life in shared computer simulations; spoilers!) the real-World has fully autonomous vehicles, one feature is "passenger protect", whether you bias the vehicle to protect the passengers or people outside the vehicle. Within the show it's considered immoral for people to protect themselves over pedestrians, but people choose that option anyway.
A central character dies in a car crash, and another character says something like 'you were murdered, you died in a car crash', the implication being cars are so safe the only way to die in one is to have someone murder you.
It touches on some interesting points (though overall it's a little vapid and soapy, imo).
- renegade-otter 3y agoYes, I love Upload. It's Black Mirror that takes itself less seriously. The novelty ran out by now and they need to do something fresh, but it's still a good time.
