    If sarcasm could make the cars drive better I’d send you right out, but maybe you should leave the issue to people who at least understand the actual problem.

        Im literally telling you what they say in the articles about why they’re doing this and all you guys wanna do is joke and pretend theres no issues with an unproved technology because you saw some statistics about it. So compared to the other commenters in this chain Im Secretary Butigege.

          Articles are not as factual as you seem to be making out. Every stupid thing you’ve mentioned has been done by humans 100 times over. The difference is we can fix the issue in self driving vehicles while humans will continue to make the mistakes.

            You’re never gonna fix them by denying they have problems, welcome, that’s how we got to this conversation.

              I’m not denying they have problems I’m just saying that it’s early tech and it’s already better than humans in a lot of ways. People are working day in and day out of fixing and improving the tech. I’m not responsible for fixing it.

                You’re responsible for what you say and advocate for, especially in a democracy.

                Advocating for throwing unproven and unverified technology on the road because you like tech and blindly trust data from a bunch of greedy corporations absolutely makes you partially responsible for every death that occurs due to this technology.

                  I’ve watched 5 hours + of unedited footage of tesla self driving mode driving in all kinds of places. It’s really amazing what it can do. It’s getting better at such a rapid rate I have no doubt that it will surpass the top 1% of human drivers. It’s already surpassed the average driver.

                  Me talking about this does not make me responsible for every death that occurs from the technology. The only person responsible is the lawmakers that allow it on the road. It seems to me that a lot of journalists are exaggerating the dangers because they don’t like Musk. This in turn convinces a lot of people that these cars are on the loose causing so many accidents. I am happy for ai to cause some road accidents while the technology grows. It’s not like the roads have 0 deaths at the moment.
