If we accelerate recklessly, accidents will halt progress, as with nuclear power. Insurance, standards, and audits together create skin in the game for quantifying, communicating, and reducing AI risks so we can balance this tightrope.

Hackers Can Tamper With Train Brakes Using Just a Radio, Feds Warn

The flaw has to do with the protocol used in a train system known as the End-of-Train and Head-of-Train.
