Don’t Recall Me. I’ll Recall You gadallon.substack.com Feb. 20, 2023, 8:13 p.m.
Cars always have externalities on their environment, from pedestrians to other vehicles to just random Seven-Elevens. So any quality issue impacts not only the driver but also their surrounding. This is true if the malfunction is electrical or mechanical, but even truer with software, which aims to interpret the environment and decide how the car should behave in such settings. In particular, the software will determine whether to yield to a pedestrian crossing the road and the distance it needs to maintain to the next car when the road is icy. So software-related issues have the potential to impact more people than standard quality issues, a fact that is supposed to make us even more sensitive to such software-related issues.
