We could just not allow autonomous vehicles.
Ever? What kinda conservative bullshit lol
Not until they’re safe. The tech isn’t there yet.
There’s no reason to bother with autonomous vehicles if we’re just going to have human drivers anyway.
Testing?
I don’t want companies to test drive on public roads, I did not sign up to be one of their test subjects.
There will be testing on public roads whether you like it or not, it’s inherent to how any new thing works.
We have ways to test new technologies before unleashing them onto the public, what are you talking about? Even if it’s necessary to test them on public roads, they could be limited to only certain roads so people who don’t want to be part of he experiment don’t have to risk their lives.
No matter how much testing they get beforehand, at some point they’ll be on public roads. And when they first get access to public roads, that will be a test. That’s just the only possible way for any new technology to come into being.
Okay, think about medication.
They test it before it gets regulatory approval. Once the testing is done it goes to the broad public because they’re found to be safe when used as directed. At no point do they experiment on people without their consent.
Obviously data is still collected after that, but that’s not the same as testing - are you conflating those two things? Because by your definition, testing never ends.
