But they don't. Thousands of people are being killed at intersections, yet unless there is some proven intent, it's extremely rare to go to jail.

Maybe this might be valid if this was a realistic thing and every bad driver who pulls out of a side street and kills someone suffers serious consequences, but they don't and it's not.

You are talking about enforcement. I am saying there are no AI laws on books, there is no established liability for the self driving software developer, the liability is still to the driver solely and completely.

First lets have those laws and regulations for AI and we can THEN talk about conviction rates for humans(or agents) and effectiveness of enforcement.

Right now human and agents are in two different leagues of enforcement civil and criminal, so they cannot be compared and agents should be held to much higher standard than humans until that changes.

self driving is safer than human driving, why should we apply urgent attention to AI driver safety. Human drivers are killing hundreds of people daily.
