I've said this in the past but instead of the government just allowing auto-updates and what not, the AI needs to pass a driving test. Each version must be certified by some test. No, not the same test a human driver goes through. Something super rigourous that involves semis tipping over, bridges falling from above, babies crawling in the road, dogs, deer, rain, smoke, hail, snow, elephants, downed power lines. Maybe even a 10 year old kid running in front.
Something that all of the companies would go through, administered by the government (not waymo).
