    I can’t wait for one of those funny looking google cars to run me over cause it didn’t want to spill the occupants drinks.

                Roko’s Basilisk is the natural conclusion of a world where everyone believes that “making an example” out of criminals reduces crimes no matter how many studies come out saying that capital punishment isn’t a deterrent. Why else would an AI come to the conclusion that revenge serves its purposes?

        Deaths from magic cars isn't a good thing but unlike regular crashes the system can learn from it & apply that knowledge to future situations to not kill people - which is a good thing. It's that or 50,000 lemmings doing the same asinine fuck up resulting in death indefinitely & nobody learning from those mistakes.

        The systems absolutely need to be open sourced & have huge oversight though because obvi capitalisms incentives aren't ever going to be reduce deaths as much as possible. Wonder what Elon values one life at, monetarily?

        Humans are fast becoming the bottleneck - we have like 10 sensors relevant to driving & a slow ass reaction time, computerized systems can absolutely beat us out at that. Not embracing that inevitability WILL kill people.

        The important thing is not killing people needlessly while we bootstrap those technologies

        Also fuck cars, gimme trains

          This is a hell of a false dichotomy

            Would fully automated cars still be bad in a modern USSR? Like I can see where capitalism is going to fuck it up but I don't think that's because automated cars are inherently bad

              Ideally, there would just be more trains and other non-car based conveyances broadly and then some sort of ride share specifically.

              In that case, I'd imagine fully autonomous cars would be better because they'd be built for safety and functionality, not advertising it as some 1000HP super car for profit and excess. They'd also be used for trips between destinations and transit hubs so I imagine the speeds would be much slower as well, which would make them inherently safer.
