Moral Crumple Zones discusses how humans are used to absorb liability from automated systems.
With Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving linked to hundreds of crashes, dozens of deaths getting traction, it’s time to remind everyone that Tesla’s design choice to disengage self-driving in the instant before impact is intentional to ensure the driver is in control during the moment of impact, even though self-driving disengaged way too late for the human to react.
In my opinion, they’re sacrificing both bystanders and customers to preserve immunity from liability.
