I do believe that, it's already being done. Autonomous cars are already on real roads. I have a PhD in computer science and am an expert in AI, what are your qualifications?

yes, they're already on real roads, and they suck: they run over children, and are confused when there's a street sign in an unexpected location, but you want my qualifications?

we don't have AI capable of safely driving cars on real roads in real world conditions, and probably won't in our lifetimes, if, indeed, ever

it's a fascinating discipline to study, sure, but we don't need self-driving cars, and I don't agree that 'some deaths' are worth training AI on real roads, just so the results can eventually be applied to some other application.

training AI on real streets should be illegal. software is stupid, and nowhere near the human brain in terms of assessing and reacting to unexpected situations, in 3D, at speed, in a rolling potential bomb, surrounded by soft, unprotected human bodies.

Did you have an incident with a self driving car? Sounds like youve got personal experience that has shaped your view

I did not, no.

I just have regular, normal compassion for (easily avoidable) human suffering.
