I have never tried being born in Brazil...

Should self-driving cars be programmed to prioritize the life of the occupant over a litter of schoolchildren? What about the President of the United States? What about the current President of the United States? What if the car belongs to the current President of the United States and he is about to run over the team famous for being about to cure childhood leukemia?

Imagine the uproar if the current President of the United State's car ran over Psy because the car decided to save an old lady that turned out to be a middleaged woman that partied too hard?

How are cars supposed to know which people are popular?

The "Harry Potter" reference was because of the guy who was watching that movie when his Tesla drove into a semi.
