We've been putting our lives in the hands of automated, programmed decisions for decades now if y'all haven't noticed. The traffic light that keeps you from getting T-boned. The autopilot that keeps your plane straight and level and takes workload off the pilots. The scissor lift that prevents you from raising the platform if it's too tilted. The airbag making a nanosecond-level decision on whether to deploy or not. And many more.
