You have been asked to audition for the Auto Taxi moral dilemma.
Anthony Hulmer, the CEO of a leading Robotaxi company, faces manslaughter charges after one of his Robotaxis swerved to avoid an oncoming vehicle and killed cyclist Alex Rivers in the process – a husband and father of two.
Was the AI technology brought to market by Anthony Hulmer prepared to make life and death decisions at the time of its release, or were critical procedures neglected in order to grab market shares? Does he deserve 10 years in prison? Did the vehicle cause a homicide or prevent a higher number of deaths?
The Jury will decide.
