A study conducted by researchers from Toulouse School of Economics for the public in concerns a situation in which there is something wrong with driverless car and what to do to save the situation. Must kill 10 people and save the driver or swerve and kill the pilot to save the group?
The survey was of a type paid on Amazon Mechanical Turk that compensates each participant 25 cents in exchange for their time to complete the survey. There are a total of 913 participants in the investigation and there are three versions of the survey at all of course with different issues. Therefore, each participant is required to make a single version of the survey. As is done online, so participants could be anywhere in the world.
From the result of the survey shows that more than 75 percent supported self-sacrifice to save 10 or 50 percent supported self-sacrifice to save one person. According to the result, it is also found that people who are excited about cars driving the car are at younger age and less religious.
There are three versions of the survey, only one version implemented a number of people who would be killed from 1 to 10 in the case in which the driver does not deviate and asked if it must kill the passenger or bystanders. The second version asked about the configuration of the driverless car, should it be programmed to always sacrifice the passenger or always protect the passenger or random? It also asks the rate of each character. The third version of the survey, there is a story in which there are 10 people registered as the car swerved and thus the passengers were killed. Participants then need to rate each moral situation if the passenger and a spectator. There are some participants who might think that the real cars are programmed to always save passengers at any price
driverless cars are designed to reduce 0% of road accidents. However, there are still 10% if the ethics code itself which is still debating.
