Re: Lovelace Oath
Correct. Deep learning tools work by twiddling thousands of dials to maximise how much the results line up with reality. They have no understanding of the interaction of the various knobs, or why they should lead to accurate results.
So, yes, this will definitely lead to problems. And the only way to try and work around this is to test the models against a really large subset of reality to see whether it does things you don't expect.
Re: Lovelace Oath
You can test in simulation (e.g. run your driving software though several million hours of simulated real conditions and see if its Desired Outcome for Accidents Arbiter is working as you would like) but you have a risk that your simulations aren't very good.
A larger risk is that we are trying to create dumb but powerful Gods using 21st Century capitalism.
