Let us imagine that we are in year 2030. Self-Driving cars which are just a concept in today’s time are
now on roads. People like us are buying them for ease and are using it for our daily transits. Of-course
because of all the features which this car has, it is expensive. Now, let us assume one day, your father is
going to office in his self-driving car. He is sitting in the back seat as the car is driving itself. Suddenly, a
small boy comes in front of this car. The incident was so sudden that the car is only able to make either
of the two choices:
1. Go straight and hit the boy who has come in front of the car and injure him severely.
2. Take a sharp right turn to save the boy and smash the car into a metal pole thus damaging the car as
well as injuring the person sitting in it.
With the help of this scenario, we need to understand that the developer of the car goes through all
such dilemmas while developing the car’s algorithm. Thus, here the morality of the developer gets
transferred into the machine as what according to him/her is right would have a higher priority and
hence would be the selection made by the machine.
If you were in the place of this developer and if there was no other alternative to the situation, which
one of the two would you prioritise and why?

Hi !
If I need to select something in the two I would go for take a sharp right turn to save the boy and get the car damaged .
But as you said there is no option I choose it . Or else the car shouldn't be developed in such a way first of all . It should be designed in such a way that it sends laser uptil 10m and sees if there is a obstruction and stops immediately . This is the correct process of creating a self driving car .
Hope this helps
Answer:
The person who is responsible for the accident is the developer who developed the car’s algorithm . Why the developer is responsible for in accident is because the developer might not have gave the command for a child or a command like “ if something comes in front of the car, then the car should stop automatically” or . It should be designed in such a way that it sends laser upto 10m and sees if there is an obstruction and stops immediately . This is the correct process of creating a self driving car .
