This article goes out of it's way to create hand wringing 'what-if' scenarios. Completely ignoring the fact that car accidents would be practically eliminated with autonomous vehicles.
It's perfectly reasonable for a group of cars to all take action with their owners self-preservation in mind first and foremost. If your worried about 'greater total number of deaths', look at human drivers.
- thematt 12y agoI still think it's an interesting question to think about. There's going to be a (long) period of time whereby autonomous vehicles are sharing the road with human controlled vehicles and the elimination of all/most accidents is not likely during that transition.
