I think that's what we are going to find out. So far, I haven't seen anyone with pitchforks and torches demanding Tesla be stopped after the first autopilot fatality.

I used to think about it the way you do, but lately I think if they can make the numbers work out, then there will be some insurance companies willing to step in and turn risk of lawsuits into a manageable cost of doing business.

You mean like autopilot on commercial airlines?

Or like x-ray machines?

Or like any other machinery that is automated and kills the odd person here and there?

These cases show us it doesn't need to be perfect at all.
