It is programmed by humans. Machine learning algorithms are designed and implemented by humans. If machine learning algorithms do not perform well in a way that puts human lives at risk, the humans who designed and implemented them are responsible.

nope, its trained as a neural network. Nobody ever sits down and programs in 'how to handle an intersection with a bike lane' other than putting that sort of driving experience into its training data. It may have modules designed for general scenarios (i.e. one module is great at freeway driving, another is great at intersections etc) but still trained by experience.

It's programmed by humans. Get over it. It's not intelligent, it's not "learning" it's following instructions, saving data, and iterating. Your comment is obvious to the point of meaninglessness.

This tendency to buzzword out of obvious truths (NN's are programs for example) derails rational discussion.
