The comment that humans are sometimes wrong too is absolutely ridiculous and I always think about the self-driving car incident in china where the car mistook an advertisement of a car above the road as a real car and hit the breaks causing a chain crash. Even the shittiest driver would never do that.
- Terr_ 2y agoI like to bring up a certain thought-experiment, where some hypothetical self-driving cars (A) are safe enough to halve the number of the accidents/injuries/deaths compared to human drivers, but (B) almost all of the bad events are from their AI unpredictably deciding to to chase-and-murder pedestrians. ... Would we consider that a good improvement to roll out? Is the only factor short-term utilitarianism? Sometimes our ability to predict and characterize errors is more important than the total error rate.
