And yes, it is difficult. Ten years ago the car of a well known Dutch opera singer caused a fatal accident while driving on the parking deck of the Amsterdam Arena. The singer, who was behind the wheel, successfully claimed that the accident was caused by his car’s cruise control, rather than his consumption of alcohol that night. I don’t make this up. Reality dovetails nicely with your examples. Whether we use an innocent transducer or a possibly disobedient agent determines the deniability of the resulting actions. Hi Kim,
