What is the alternative other than holding these companies responsible for the deaths they might cause ? The only solution I see is mandating very high insurance requirement than a human driver. For example 25M per death they might cause.

Perhaps reasonable regulations involving extensive pre-street testing and solid public documentation of ML design decisions and training data sources before allowing use in uncontrolled environments? Also, criminal liability during initial deployment?

Of course, real responsibility is probably unfashionable...

(edit: I'm personally in high-stakes time-sensitive diagnostic ML development, so...)
