Yep. I am absolutely fascinated by it. Totally agree with you, you couldn’t be more right. I’m a heavy AI user and I love seeing those 2 minute papers about what clever people are doing with it, like creating a swarm of AIs to create a game using giving AIs roles and responsibilities and reporting hierarchy, code review, and more. On the other side I literally made copyright infringing material by accident.
While public ones might get some safe guards to help prevent people from doing bad things easily and intentionally, there’s plenty of unrestricted ones coming in, scraping the internet, training and offering a moral free AI. The arms wars have begun on all kinds of fronts. I can’t predict where we will be in 5 years from now.
Id be betting pessimistically though
Standardised is a funny word, a car manufacturer doesn’t standardise. Laws and 3rd parties like ANCAP do.
When they need to do it to sell it with certain safety requirements, they will.
However, even if those happen, and car makers today start building them with that, it’ll take a decade or longer before you’ll start seeing them in majority on the road. So even if you lobby for it, expect time since I’d say less than half of all people buy new cars, so it’s not until the second hand market sees it will it be commonplace.
Right now the second hand market is starting to see things like collision avoidance systems and they will often flash brake lights when emergency braking on behalf of the driver.
