I don't understand the corlation between hateing pedestrians (fully agree) and the self driving car

[โ€“] supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago

There are actually two ways to make a self driving car.

  1. make a self driving car that can be trusted to drive around pedestrian filled environments and not kill them (this option is extremely hard with literally infinite edgecases)

  2. dehumanize pedestrians culturally and legally to the point that the bar for safety becomes a bludgeon to beat them with, then sell a broken self driving car

which do you think tesla is choosing?
