Yes, different set of priorities. Do some vendors get more defensive algorithms? At a cost? Do some people get to override the algorithms? Can priorities be altered by law enforcement, emergency vehicles? How is liability established? How about hackers?
Who determines if one life is worth more than another?
Consider this... As a programmer I can possibly determine where you go, potentially gain access to other vehicles around yours, and using publically available data about you and others you may associate with on a regular basis i could make a reasonable guess about your political views. Now perhaps I could alter the rule base that controls you car and bias the outcome to sacrifice the vehicle and occupants or those that do not share my political views,
Next question... As a developer am I liable for any outcomes, or as an executive of a company am I liable for allowing a bias like this to escape from the lab into the wild?
Just some food for thought.
