That's going to mean more unemployment and another corporate domination in one more field.
I was speaking to one of the software engineers on the Waymo team a while back and asked him if a large piece of plastic or newspaper flew across the car what would it did do and he said it would slam the breaks on. There are lots of unknowns with this car and just like the aircraft industry, experience is going to be gained through trial and error and a few crashes. Under ideal conditions it will drive fine but if something new comes up how will it react is the key. From ice on the road to tumultuous rain and hail stones , high wind speed, slippery surfaces , holes in the road; predictive decision making is going to require a lot of AI work. It's a frightening achievement, another step in machines taking over the lives of people , slowly and systematically, we are losing control and putting our destiny in the hands of AI, computers, servos and software and the rich few.

Relax as this is decades and decades away from even being considered.

That one example can easily already be programmed into the system by using sensors to detect the size and mass of the objects and so just maybe slowing down a little and carrying on as a human driver would do.
