Curious about the HN community's thoughts on this self-driving car AI conundrum.

HN readers have had many opportunities to voice their thoughts.

This was discussion about this 9 months ago, when there were 15 different links to the article "Why Self-Driving Cars Must Be Programmed to Kill" - https://hn.algolia.com/?query=Why%20Self-Driving%20Cars%20Mu... , with about 30 comments across all postings.

A bit over a year ago there were 70 HN comments at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9725288 to the story "Will your self-driving car be programmed to kill you?"

8 months ago there were 71 HN comments at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10709264 to the story "Will your driverless car kill you so others may live?"

There's almost certainly more that I've forgotten.

You're thinking too far ahead. Right now these cars are mainly focused on staying on path and collision avoidance, not making "3 Laws" type decisions.
