It's one of those things where I wonder if I'm not being too much of a curmudgeon. I'm sure the case could be made that these things will reduce overall traffic deaths long before they become perfect drivers, eh

Yeah I don't buy that argument. These systems would have to be at least human level and also so pervasive that it would be almost like an inoculation.

At that point there are cheaper and easier ways to do that, which by the way are already happening. If you buy a modern car they have very impressive look ahead/smart cruise and lane keeping systems.

I agree with you, I think. To me it seems that you pretty much need AGI to drive IRL. And there are a lot of cheaper and easier things to do in the meantime. Cheers
