That's not how product liability laws work in the U.S. or in the E.U.
The first time a child gets harmed by a robot, the company making that robot will go spectacularly bankrupt. If a child gets killed by a robot, it would likely end the consumer robotics industry for a decade or more.
People tried to hold gun manufacturers liable for dead children, and the law was simply changed to exempt them.
Robots and AI have too much money to be held liable.
Teslas have killed probably hundreds of people at this point and the only changes to self-driving laws have been to allow more of it.
Tesla sales have cratered in all but 2 countries.
