In response to "I mean that’s the whole of it, right? Trying to do something we don’t yet imagine happening. Is it an unsolvable, or a matter of time. -- nm" by Qale

I think it’s a matter of time, but a longer time than most people think.

Like it’s easy to make a machine that gets it right like 98% of the time, and that’s fine for supermarket checkout, but falls over with two tonne speeding death machines.

I’ll have you know I only get it right 97% of the time! -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 05:57 2
- You can interpolate from missing data! The damn machine doesn’t know what to do when it can’t read the code. -- nm - mafic Nov 17, 06:02 1
  - UPC tech is flawed and it’s just a basic pull from a database! -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 06:03
Plus I think that at some point the entire "system" around driving changes to accommodate it whether that be road design, additional cooperating tech, - oblique Nov 17, 05:51 2
- I don’t know the first thing about the tech, but I do wonder if the design is flawed from the start because of this. - Qale Nov 17, 05:59 1
  - Basically yes. It doesn't take much of a stretch of the imagination to consider a road that tells the car the information it needs instead of the car - oblique Nov 17, 06:02
plus you will always have the a-holes who override as they are better drivers than some stupid computer made specifically for driving -- nm - Beaker Nov 17, 05:51 1
- If anything it seems that the a-holes currently are overriding in the opposite direction. Pushing the cars to do the driving when they shouldn’t be. -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 06:00
