What if the AI drove the car into a pedestrian? The pedestrian didn't consent to letting the AI drive.

It's a spectrum, not black and white. The self driving car is a lot closer to one end, and the other examples are closer to the other. None are perfect examples of the extremities.

What if a drunk drives the car into a pedestrian? Not much content there, either.

This is easy to explain. The driver is at fault. Explainability is what we are debating.
