They were dangerous before this death. It’s just that most people, excluding me, didn’t want to think they were.
You mean to tell me that a 4 thousand pound metal and plastic vehicle is moving at speeds up to 70 mph and is controlled by a video camera and a gps connected to a computer program?
Anyone who would set up something like this is criminally responsible for any ensuing deaths.
But no one will listen. This death will be explained away as a “glitch,” and development will continue. They will just need to “tweak” the program a bit, and everything will be OK.
How will an autonomous car park at the airport? A restaurant? How will it get you to your Talladega Speedway camp site?
The GM prototype has no steering wheel. Guess I better keep the old Winnebago if I want to go to a race.
