The High-Stakes Race to Rid the World of Human Drivers
One thing I haven&#x27;t heard much about is how humans and AI drivers will interact.<p>If we all assume that AI cars are going to be very conservative and very competent drivers, will people take advantage of that?  Will human drivers become even bigger assholes that cut off AI drivers at every possibility, knowing that an AI will not hit them?  Why wait in a big line for an exit, when you know an AI car will always let you in.  The AI driver won&#x27;t even mind, as it has no emotional state, so why not?<p>Pedestrians and cyclists may also learn that they can freely cut off an AI car at anytime they please.  Why wait for a walk signal?  Why walk all the way to the intersection?  Just saunter across anywhere you like, so long as you cross in front of an AI car.
