    More to the point

    This whole conversation so far has entirely missed the point.

    The fact that a self driving car company has gotten people killed is a moot point. Even if we had a self driving car that is 100x safer driver than humans it will still get people killed. Saying “This 100 times safer than human car company has gotten multiple people killed” doesn’t mean anything. Human drivers get 110 people killed every single day in the US alone. That’s the starting point. Not 0 people getting killed. The only thing that’s important here is being better driver than human. Not perfect - better.
