These statistics are meaningless.

How many Tesla cars with full self driving are there compared to regular cars?

A Tesla with FSD will only be using FSD a small fraction of the time.

If we had statistics on the number of hours FSD was active compared to the number of hours all other car driving of all cars we might be able to compared these numbers.

Hour wise, I think normal driving is way above 7500:1.




Why are people willing to excuse things because they happen in a car? If an AI power tool were going haywire once in a while and chopping the arms off of bystanders near by, would we find that acceptable because people using non-AI powered tools also chop off their body parts sometimes? 'We can't know if it would have happened if a person were in control' is not an argument that would fly for anything else just as dangerous.

Yes, if the AI power tools chop off less limbs than the human controlled power tools, I would find that acceptable.
