can i ask why you “trust” the system with your life so much?

there’s not a single piece of software i trust in my daily life. i mean, something as simple as an iPad, phone, computer, tv, etc. hardly goes a day without a glitch, but yet people are ready to trust “self-driving” auto features as if they’ve never experienced a software failure before. and normally, it isn’t a software failure in the strictest sense. it’s a human error embedded in software. so i ask myself, do i trust the however many overworked, sleep deprived, wide-eyed engineers’ abstract and concrete thought now embedded in cars’ active driving systems? the answer is no way.
