WHAT SELF-DRIVING CARS TELL US ABOUT AI RISKS

If you’re an adenoidal keyboard warrior from IT who still buys Musk BS on this topic, you’re fucking dumb or actively misanthropic. No amount of wishful thinking is going to magic this fairy tale into existence with the current approach.

IN 2016, JUST WEEKS before the Autopilot in his Tesla drove Joshua Brown to his deathI pleaded with the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation to regulate the use of artificial intelligence in vehicles. Neither my pleading nor Brown’s death could stir the government to action.

Since then, automotive AI in the United States has been linked to at least 25 confirmed deaths and to hundreds of injuries and instances of property damage.

The lack of technical comprehension across industry and government is appalling.
