I think it will take a complete understanding of the brain before we’re able to design that kind of AI and we’re not even totally sure how that works.
I know it may be hard to believe but Musk is the small fish in the autonomous driving development pond. He is the most vocal but still a very small player.
The systems do not need to work as the human brain.
There are already hundreds of completely autonomous busses running around Europe with zero issues. The big resistance is in North America since it is our god given right to kill people with our cars.
