yeah, sure, if you want to take everything that any human does as "being human" "by definition." Then I guess it's human to eat spiders and bathe in your own shit. I think it would be more useful to at least consider the normal level of behavior.

Because we necessarily need higher standards for a self-driving system than for humans. A human failure is isolated; a machine failure is systemic.

I, as a somewhat normal driver, am not personally at much risk if some other driver decides to drive on the rails. That won't be true if I'm in a Waymo and there's nothing I can do about its bugs.

And I don't blame people who are skeptical that Waymo will be properly punished. In fact, do you suppose they were punished here?

1500 out of a lot. It's probably more accurate to say that those 1500 didn't drive like humans either.

Do you think we live in a planned economy or something?
