Autonomous vehicles, or self-driving cars, use technology to navigate and operate without human intervention. Proponents argue that regulations ensure safety, promote innovation, and prevent accidents caused by technology failures. Opponents argue that regulations could stifle innovation, delay deployment, and impose excessive burdens on developers.
Narrow down the conversation to these participants:
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
Would you trust a self-driving car to safely transport your loved ones? Why or why not?
@9YD4N9L1mo1MO
Probably more than a human because AI trained to do it as it's nature wouldn't mess up, humans mess up a lot
@9YB38521mo1MO
No I would not as I believe that the risks of its programming being faulty are too high. I also believe it’ll be hard for a just any common person prevent an accident if it were to happen, especially when they have little knowledge on the vehicle.
@9Y5ST6S1mo1MO
My opinion would depend on previous tests. If people had previously been transported safely I would be up for it.
@9Y3LGRK1mo1MO
No due to the lack of control in case of emergencies.
@9TWFSRV3mos3MO
No, as they should be banned from going faster than 20 miles per hour and should not be allowed for private citizens.
@9Q5MMMP6mos6MO
No, We don't need autonomous vehicles, just taking away a job from someone. Imagine all the black cabs in London are now autonomous. No need for drivers.
@9QVH47J5mos5MO
I think autonomous vehicles are ruining peoples jobs because they need to make a living and sometimes the only way to do that is buy driving people around.
@9QNP5FF6mos6MO
it should be tested and regulated every so often with mandatory tested similar to an mot and it should be made mandatory to keep the software up to date to ensure proper safe driving practices
@9QB92LS6mos6MO
Yes, but in the future as it is not feasible for the average person to adapt in a short period of time.
@9MPWSXM7mos7MO
Yes, I believe autonomous vehicles should be completely mandatory in the near future.
@9MKZZVX7mos7MO
Yes, but positively, and also subsidise investment to encourage growth here.
@9Q3NHCX6mos6MO
They need to stop the production of EVs and any other newer technology in cars. Just use normal internal combustion vehicles!!!
@9P83HTL6mos6MO
Yes, but only in outlining the standards that each developer would have meet in order to make their vehicles safe for use in public. They should not interfere with innovation, research and development, nor impose burdens.
@9P4P8PM6mos6MO
Some Regulation is needed but the right balance needs to be achieved so as not to stifle innovation.
@9NKKN387mos7MO
Yes, only in circumstances where safety and accuracy is guranteed. It would grant freedom to people with disabilities
@9MR48PS7mos7MO
yes, only people who are unable to drive should have access to them
@9N8QRS67mos7MO
I don’t understand the wording, however, my opinion is that self driving cars should not ever become the norm due to the fact driving requires humans to acknowledge other humans and self driving carts means the complications between robots communicating with other robots. The difference between the design, the brand, the technology, the code used, the measurements used will be almost impossible to standardise worldwide nevermind the UK.
@9MX5L367mos7MO
Yes, but the bare minimum to ensure safety, with an understanding that the technology could rapidly improve
@9MSX6RP 7mos7MO
Yes, but more research and funding should be made available until they are deemed safe by experts in the industry.
