Comment on Waymo issued a recall after two robotaxis crashed into the same pickup truck

You see these all the time in San Francisco. I’d imagine the vast majority of the time, there are no issues. It’s just going to be big headlines whenever some accident does happen.
Nobody seems to care about the nearly 50,000 people dying every year from human-caused car accidents

I would actually wager that’s not true, it’s just that the people we elect tend to favor the corporations and look after their interests moreso than the people who elected them, so we end up being powerless to do anything about it.

sure, but why do these accidents caused by AI drivers and yet we rarely see news about human-caused accidents? it’s because news reports what is most interesting - not exactly accurate or representative of the real problems of the country

Yeah same reason why a single EV fire is national news but an ICE fire is just an unnoteworthy, everyday occurrence.
