Any system that assists or replaces driving is a system that converts a bit of human intelligence into machine driving intelligence. I mean, we can have a discussion about semantics and heuristics but that is what I meant with that statement. The interesting challenge to me is how we do this. Is that what you're alluding to? There is an interesting debate going on about whether automated systems should assist or replace human drivers. I recently read an interesting article that proposed a human-machine interaction with the 'horseman analogy', where your car has rules and can take some basic actions on its own (like a horse), and you as the horseman have the final say and decide on the general course.
I assumed you were referring to the idea of machines needing to know "human morality" in order to replace human actions, and was saying that machines shouldn't have our morality imposed on them, they should be allowed to come to decisions naturally based on the learning algorithms they are built with. I ultimately think human drivers should be entirely replaced by machine drivers. The horse-driver analogy is interesting, but ultimately it defeats the purpose of the self driving car. I think it makes a good stopgap, though.
