Seriously, I would love to see a fully autonomous vehicle drive as well and as safely as I do. I’m comfortable saying it won’t happen even in 5 years.

You know why? I respect the multi-ton piece of machinery I’m operating as well as those outside of the vehicle. I only pick up my phone to maybe skip a song while the…

Damn...lol

This article is on point. As a straight male, I too find the gratuitous fan service off-putting and it makes it difficult to share anime with friends and family. However, when the show is about fan service and the plot justifies it, like Kill-la-Kill, it can be extremely enjoyable.

Good call. She really is great, FMA has a lot of really strong female characters.

So, in a few words, you really didn’t read this.

Nothing! She’s one of my favorite anime girls. I put her up top because I think she’s great.

Aww, what did poor Winry do that’s fan-servicey? I guess she does work in a sports bra or something from time to time..

Why in the hell is this an issue? If you would rather not be responsible for driving yourself, move to an area with a well-developed public transportation system and take the bus or the train. It is so damn stupid that being distracted by a mobile device or other activities in the car has become such an acceptable…

“If you know you can save at least one person, at least save that one.”

Honestly, as a straight white (no longer teenage) male, anime fan service really pushes me away from the medium. I want to be able to get into shows and share them with people who aren’t already fans without getting weird looks because of random hypersexualization. Not saying it should go away completely but it…

Yep, I was thinking something close to that. Philosophy people don’t like it when you deconstruct the scenerio and pick none of the above.

In the future world where driving your own car will be banned, only criminals will drive cars.

eh.. as i read the question it was pretty easy anyway... i mean depending on wich way the kids are crossing they’re going to end up running off a cliff or infront of the aproaching unavoidable truck.... so really..nothing you do could save the kids

Here’s how I look at it; these systems are and always will be fallible. Do you want a self driving car that might get spooked by a smooshed bug on a sensor and decide to swan-dive off a cliff? Should a pauper-shaped radar artifact be able to cause your car to force a head-on collision? We can’t confuse abstract ethics…

Yes, just like no one’s ever died in an unavoidable car accident. Because reality.

The answer is always to protect pedestrians. I have a few reasons for this:

This is a bullshit hypothetical false dichotomy.

But why swerve? Just brake for crying out loud. You wouldn’t, er, the car wouldn’t need to choose between frustrated murder or multiple murder. It’s more than capable of seeing what’s ahead. Just brake in time, don’t turn in anywhere.

Yes! Promoting alcoholism at the end of the ‘article’ right after firing off a class warefare bomb! Well done. Well written.

This is the correct answer to the problem. My property does not get to determine whether I live or die, not for orphans, not for priests, not for the president.
