It needs to be quite a bit better than humans to actually take off. The difference between a person driving and anything else is who is in control, and therefore to blame. Just being statistically better than the average person isn’t good enough, imho.
I still think the technology would be getting pushed forward even if it was only slightly better than humans. However it is far safer than humans which is why its growing rapidly in application.
However humans may also be getting better via self driving tools such as radar cruise control. So you’d need to compare to a human with access to these tools.
Thats a good point. I cant wait for that stuff to become more widely available so we can see how that impacts things.
