> "all legal responsibility"

I have a feeling there is enough small print to allow them to wiggle out of most situations.

They are opening themselves up to massive liability even with “fine print” — this is meaningful and should not be disregarded. Just because there’s some super indem clause in their customer agreement doesn’t mean the courts will rule in its favor and not strike it out.

I'm always terrified I will doze off without realizing when I'm in traffic jams. There's just so little stimulants that my brain demands going into standby mode.

Who will be in line for jail sentences if it comes to that?

The vast majority of traffic accidents does not result in jailtime for anyone involved.

Since algorithms cannot have malice, the only offense left is negligence which for companies usually means a heavy fine and/or legal restraints, maybe prosecution.
