It doesn't have to not kill people to be an improvement, it just has to kill less people than people do
True in a purely logical sense, but assigning liability is a huge issue for self-driving vehicles.

I cannot support tesla now that I know they aren't vegan smh
It kills the deer and keeps on going, it doesn't stop to let you collect it so you can eat it. They are chaotic evil vegans.

Is there a longer video anywhere? Looking closely I have to wonder where the hell did that deer come from? There's a car up ahead of the Tesla in the same lane, I presume quickly moved back in once it passed the deer? The deer didn't spook or anything from that car?
This would have been hard for a human driver to avoid hitting, but I know the issue is the right equipment would have been better than human vision, which should be the goal. And it didn't detect the impact either since it didn't stop.
But I just think it's peculiar that that deer just literally popped there without any sign of motion.

Honestly, I’m surprised the car was still in one piece. I’ve seen semi-trucks disintegrate after hitting a dear.
