Hackers Are the Real Obstacle for Self-Driving Vehicles

Autonomous vehicles could be subject to hacks by adversarial machine-learning, possibly perpetrated by out-of-work truck/Uber drivers and “adversarial machine learning”. The fact that vehicle algorithms can already be fairly easily tricked also raises concerns.

Self-Driving Vehicles and Drone Traffic Stops

Nathan, a computer programmer, lives in an imagined version of 2033 in which all cars are equipped with a vocal assistant and an autonomous drive program. When he takes control of his own car and drives recklessly, he is pulled over by a police drone. Eventually, he meets his demise when the autonomous drive in his car fails to recognize a parked truck in the middle of the road.
