I think “fled” is the wrong word here. “Fled” means “running from” which implies some sort of conscious decision making usually reserved for living things. If you throw a rock and it bounces off Sam Altman’s head, you don’t say the rock fled from Sam. You just say “Nice shot”
If you cause a human to flea the scene (or rob a bank or whatever) through force, threat, or coercive acts you would be held responsible - the key point here is if the person/people (the ones who makes decisions at the shitty tech company responsible for the job-stealing delivery automaton) will be allowed to use the get out of jail free card “it wasn’t me that injured those people / hacked that competitor / stole the crypto” or if accountability actually means nothing for the bourgeoisie in 2026 if they own robots and AI.
Maybe, but that’s still based on a human that should be aware of what they’re doing, even if they weren’t at the time.
To me it’s more like a rolling truck running someone over and continuing on down the street. Whoever was in charge of the truck should be liable for not securing it, but the truck at no point fled the scene… it has no awareness or capability to understand.
The issue with this argument is in order for us to allow these vehicles to operate on the road they NEED to have this awareness. If they can’t be aware then they shouldn’t be permitted to operate. We don’t allow people who’s awareness is impared to legally operate on the road, why should we let computers without awareness operarate in the same conditions?
By holding them to the same(or in my preference higher) standards is the only way we have if ensuring there is accountability for the companies operating these things. They cannot be allowed to pass off that liability.
It’s a mix. They’re like a Sim in The Sims, humans give them instructions and then they run path finding trying to implement it. The humans can take full control if the robots gets completely confused.

Who would be sick to do such a thing? Complimenting yourself is so not done.

If a driver hits someone without realizing it and drives off to continue their day, that’s still legally fleeing the scene

Lmao
Right but if we say “fled” we can get everyone all riled up and increase our engagement metrics.
sometimes there are remote workers (…Another Indian) who drive these things.
That’s wild to think we’ve managed to outsource the very act of driving to another country. Nothing drives innovation quite like capitalism 🫠
