Computer programs what are controlling the self-driving car are very complicated. And those vehicles are under development, and there is always the driver when those vehicles are operating in some area. Uber has made lots of work about the security of their autonomous driving taxis. And this was the sad accident for that pedestrian. If there is a single error in a program, the computer cannot control the vehicle. The results would be terrible and sad because the car would kill somebody.
But that kind of news is causing terrible thoughts in my mind. If somebody wants to make murder by using the car as the weapon, might this person able to make the computer program what makes the car as an invincible weapon. And when the normal taxi drives on the road, it would suddenly turn and hit some person.
This is the problem with the self-driving cars. If somebody wants to hurt some innocent persons, he might just change those car’s controlling program. And the results would be devastating. Also, somebody would want to make assassinations with autonomous vehicles, by connecting their controlling program the thing, what is called as “ghost protocol”. In this scenario, somebody would make the car a terrible assassination weapon. And then the strike is done, would that program terminate itself.
The “ghost protocol” means that in the controlling software would be injected the code, what reacts, when the targeted person is visible. That code makes the car attack to that targeted person. In normal drive, those self-driving cars seem like harmless, but when they would notice the target, that would begin the attack against that victim. The computer of the car would get the image of the targeted person or another vehicle, and then this car would transform real life “Christine”.
