Autonomous Driving

The example of autonomous individual traffic here stands only for a general problem of software-controlled behavior programs. It is particularly illustrative in that under current road traffic conditions, at least in inner cities, a variety of complex interaction situations occur.

  Digital humanism recommends the consistent, well-considered use of all potentials of digital technologies to improve the protection of life and health in road traffic. At the same time, however, it warns against the inhumane consequences of an optimization calculus in which human life is set off against human life, human life against health, the health of one against the health of the other, individual rights against individual rights.
