      Hold the manufacturers and operators (specifically for company operated) accountable?

      The machine is the product, not the operator. We don’t jail classic cars either. We hold their operators accountable. The one in control. Self driving has a shift of who is in control - now “indirectly”.

        if only that were the truth.

        these companies will attempt to settle for bottom dollar or drag it out so long you’ll have to go homeless to pay the legal fees.

        there is no justice left in the legal system. justice isn’t just blind anymore, she’s been decapitated.

          So in conclusion, it’s not AI that’s the problem it’s the legal system?
