[…] I was passing a bicycle the other day, and did what most people do on a road with no other cars – I just drifted over the center line to make room. Without using my turn indicator, because I was just making room. But the car’s lane-assist had gotten accidentally enabled, so the car jerked the wheel back to the right. It would have killed the cyclist except I fought it and won.

There’s the thing about AI and “computers can’t be held accountable so must never make decisions”, but then we demand cars be fitted with cameras to not drift over white lines and this happens

@alecm human drivers would see the cyclist, decide to pass, and would keep a mental model of the cyclist’s position in their head as they went past. i.e. we don’t/can’t keep staring at the cyclist as it goes by. Does any self-driving car do that, or are they all based on what their sensors currently see, because that sounds like something they all need to do.

So you are saying that the self-driving Car would be safer?
