Yes. But again people won’t accept that. People will rather be killed more often by drivers that feel guilt, go to prison, have strokes or poor eyesight than less often by a machine that does not have all of those flaws but also none of the feelings and responsibilities.
I’d be thrilled if self-driving cars could meet that bar, because then I can feel at least as comfortable napping in the car as I do driving it. And unlike humans, I have the expectation that my car learns when other cars crash, so I have a lot of reason to expect that once the system rolls out it will continue to improve.
I hate almost everything about Tesla and their business model but the idea of full automatic driving, once vetted to even a bare minimum level of approximate human parity, is enough to make me consider one anyway.
