I'm renaming my kid to Nostrodamus. He asked me yesterday what would happen if a self driving car crashed onto a cop car.

The first aligned AI would immediately try to curb the techbros and billionaires that made it

The human resistance fought hard but in the end the AI self driving teslas surrounded all the remaining US military bases and occupied the US capital, Bernie Sanders having fled into the country side in Vermont on a bicycle is caught in a topdown shot in the middle of a snowy field, teslas emerge from everywhere and begin circling him like sharks, this is the end. Bernie Sanders screams "I will die in battle" [note: meaning he is still intending to pass legislation about AI] and then the lead tesla speaks "WE HAVE PREPARED THEM FOR YOUR UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, MAKE THEM FEEL THE BERN"

The movie ends with the teslas crying in a circle around Bernie's corpse after Bernie tries to get in the tesla to save the day and the tesla door chops his body brutally in half by accident because for some reason Musk wanted the car doors to be fully automatic, masculine and powerful like how he imagines himself.

I hate Elon as much as the next Lemmite, but how about we blame the driver who fell asleep, and not the car this time?

Complain about tesla drivers -> "how about holding the rich responsible instead of regular people"

Complain about tesla -> "the drivers were clearly not using them properly we should blame them"

No because we have always known people are idiots and what responsible engineers and policy makers should be doing is demanding the idiots who buy these are hit over the head over and over again with the idea that these are INCAPABLE of driving themselves, this should be established as firmly "driving assist".

This is basic safety culture stuff, and safety culture always begins with letting go of our natural obsession with turning safety into something that we extend to virtuous people only.
