Thinking about it, I am sure it is only a matter of time until a self driving car or a robot will be used to kill a human. Or on a lower level for a DDoS attack - all cars/robots going to the white house.

> self driving car or a robot will be used to kill a human

They already have. We just don't hold the perpetrators accountable.

I think "has been used to kill" is a more serious accusation than "accidentally killed" (even if due to recklessness).

What case(s) are you thinking of?
