Re: "A.I. is hard."

AI is really, really hard.

Autonomous vehicles will have to be capable of learning, not just responding in pre-programmed ways to known situations. And every manufacturer will have a different AI solution.

How will the authorities competently asses whether the AI is up to a safety related application? It's not a military environment where collateral damage is "acceptable". Up to now, they have been incapable of determining something as simple as whether vehicles are programmed to game the emissions rules.
