Yet another reason to despise AI. Animals deserve to be safe too. We've already taken so much from them as it is.

    Ai has a proven track record of causing less accidents, and killing far fewer animals per km traveled than the average driver.

    92% fewer accidents involving animals than the average human.

    Ai doesn't drink, get distracted, or smoke meth like the ml mods.

    There are also a lot of people out there that will intentionally swerve to hit an animal. Mark Rober made a video a long time ago where 6% of drivers went out of their way to hit animals that were just chilling on the shoulder.

    here you dropped this

    per capita

    your figures (though I doubt them) don't include the skew of driver vs driverless vehicles. of course driverless cars are 92% less likely to have an accident involving animals. that's because driverless cars account for less than 1% of the entire vehicle population.

    Ai doesn't drink, get distracted, or smoke meth like the ml mods.

    but it does randomly hallucinate.

    I believe these cars drive on the same roads all day, whereas people are likely to be driving in and out of areas these systems are not familiar with. I suppose a good comparison would be of a taxi driver that only operates in the same area as the driverless cars, if that exists.

    as the comment chain below highlights, autonomous driving AI is completely different from LLMs. Computer vision and control theory have made big improvements because of machine learning, do you despise this too?

    Then keep the car inside. Outdoor cats are not safe and get killed by cars animals.
