Be my guest and risk killing yourself by beta testing dangerous self driving vehicles and medical procedures that haven't gone through their trials.
I risk nothing by not participating.
Just do us all a favor and try not to take out others For Science™. Enjoy doing someone else's QC for free.
But you do, not participating has opportunity risk. It's an elementary CBA - give or take 40 thousand people will die, which could include either or both of us, for every year of delay in self-driving. Be it for 'prudent', 'common-sense' trials or otherwise.
It's scary as hell[0] that there are otherwise smart people who don't see the car-shaped gun already pointed at them just because it has grown familiar.
[0]Because that line of thinking will cost tens of thousands of lives.
You're right it does, but I know what the risk is. I do not know what the risk is for said untested beta product.
Please valiantly be the better man by being society's guinea pig. I have a family and have reasons for living.
I would however recommend getting a life insurance policy so when the obvious happens you won't leave your loved ones high and dry.
