I mean I wouldn't attack the disabled person for using the self-driving car, but the thing, you actually do not need AI to make cars drive themselves or to cure disease (which is something AI has never done and may never do, actually) kinda like how yes, you can cure diseases by experimenting on humans against their will, but it's still better if you don't. 

Self driving cars do actually require AI to become fully capable under all conditions so that'll be how they'll eventually become the standard. In general though what I was getting at is I'm sure you wouldn't consider it unethical for people to use the technology to drastically improve their quality of life thus another example would be the people who have used it to figure out what rare illness they have when all the doctors they saw weren't able to so that got me wondering what the line could be. If you'd rather not answer that's fine though and we can just leave it there.

They don't need to be that autonomous. For that matter, why make an autonomous car at all? Just make a car a disabled person can drive.

Let's say you cure a disease by experimenting on people without their consent. Technically, yes, you cured a disease. But the process you used to there there was unethical; in this case, you could and should made the same breakthrough in way that didn't fund and support AI's numerous harmful applications.

With that said, AI has never cured a disease, and there's no guarantee it ever will. On the other hand, we've been curing disease without it for centuries.
