TranscriptExplain it to me like I’m 80

Mom: What’s with these AIs escaping and hacking people? That sounds scary.

Me: You park your car at the top of a hill. You leave a note on the dashboard that says “please be good” and then you pull the parking brake. The car careens down the hill, smashes everything up, and you put out a press release saying “My car ignored my instructions! It hallucinated! It went rogue!” Your insurance company not only believes you, but invests a hundred million dollars in your company.

And from what I heard the parking brake doesn't just lock up the wheels... It's not even connected to the front wheels. So you're missing most of the braking power. And that's also a reason why it's good for drifting.

Wonder how cars with electronic stuff deal with the legal requirement for there to be a second brake available.
