This is only news because it's an AI car. Were it a human, it would be a youtube video with a title "stupid drivers". Nobody would be calling to "regulate human drivers" or "ban all human drivers from driving cars".

Considering the source, this is only news because it’s not a Tesla.

This is only news because it's an AI car. Were it a human,

It was mainly a driverless car.

Were it a driverless car without AI, the news would be the same.

Also once an AI car is taught it will never do this again . Human drivers will keep on doing this.

The driverless car will plow into cement willingly, as long as it's a slightly different shade of grey. The human will be distracted by the orange man waving the sign and think "what are the chances I drive into cement again?"

The only way to fix this is to fine the driverless car company every time. Hold them liable and take away their license. Suspend the driverless car program every time something bad happens. Those VC morons will fix every issue in like 2 weeks.
