@LouisIngenthron when a self-driving car maker or operator injures or kills in ways that are deemed the “car’s” error, firms might be fined, but a fine as @pluralistic puts it is a price, just a cost of doing business. the level of accountability we apply to decisionmakers at these firms is incredibly attenuated compared to the level of accountability’s — often criminal — that we impose for similar infractions by human drivers. 4/
