This 25-minute video talks about the concept of a Computer Driver to resolve the ambiguity and industry tapdancing we're seeing about who might be negligent for a crash when automation is driving the car. This creates a framework for both SAE Level 2 and Level 3 features that makes it explicit which of the computer driver or the human driver has the duty of care for safety at any given time.
Topics:
- Why product liability is not enough to get the job done
- Tort law for engineers
- Assigning a duty of care to promote accountability
- Implications of defining a computer driver
- Duty of care for conventional, fully autonomous, and testing features
- The awkward middle: transferring the duty of care for supervisory mode
- The urgency of defining a computer driver while we wait for longer-term regulations
