Now, once Tesla goes Mercedes and says you don't have to pay attention, it's gonna be the company that should step in
That doesn't give me warm and fuzzies either... Imagine a poor dude having to fight Mercedes or Testla because he was crippled by a sleeping driver and bad AI... Not even counting the lobbying that would certainly happen to reduce and then eliminate their liability
Hmmm I get you point but you seem to be taken the cavalier position of one who'd never be affected.
Let's proposed this alternative scenario: AI is 50% safer and would reduce death from 40k to 20k a year if adopted. However, the 20k left will include your family and, unfortunately , there is no accountability therefore, nobody will pay to help raise your orphan nephew or help grandma now that your grandpa died ran over by a Tesla... Would you approve AI driving going forward?

You sound bitter... Let me guess, you couldn't get into one?
I vow never to buy anything advertised to me in such intrusive way....
I've been using it for my daily driver for work and casual gaming with no issues for 4 months now (Garuda Linux)
ah... the Land of the Free
indeed... you'd expect big bucks on the D part... new factory, going for mass production, etc... and even then, you can only build so fast
As others have said, the implication in this article's title is silly... Surely an r&d phase start easily explains this
What I'm curious about is how you spend that much money in such little time? Was that money actually spent or just committed?
they are just forcing the company to divest from it's Chinese parent company.
... Or get banned
They may not have to maximise profits but the shareholders will question every decision that doesn't maximise profits so the result is the same.
If that were true, we wouldn't see the obscene salaries of C-suite level execs skyrocket... That money cuts into the profits as well, you know?
They are ok squeezing their workers while giving themselves the sweet life on the company's dime
That's why activist investors that push companies to more ethical behaviour are important.
This is a fairy tale force, like Santa or the boogie man. You'll never get ethical behavior from profit seeking entities
No, I do mean literally your family. Not because I'm trying to be mean to you, I'm just trying to highlight you'd agree with a contract when you think the price does not apply to you.... But in reality the price will apply to someone, whether they agree with the contract and enjoy the benefits or not
It's the exact same situation with real life with the plane manufacturers. They lobby the government to allow recalls not to be done immediately but instead on the regular maintenance of the planes. This is to save money but it literally means that some planes are put there with known defects that will not be addressed for months (or years, depending on the maintenance needed)
Literally, people who'd never have a loved one in one of those flights decided that was acceptable to save money. They agreed, it's ok to put your life at risk, statistically, because they want more money
