This is a slippery slope. I would certainly contest any choice made on my behalf by an AI when the lawsuits begin to fly. I would only accept liability if the choice made was mine and mine alone.........
What's likely at that point is that AIs will be insured by the companies that designed them. So if one is available to drive your car (included in the price that you paid, including liability insurance for decisions made by it), you can still choose to eschew it and drive yourself, but then you will have to pay (likely a really high premium) to get human driver liability insurance.

I'm almost certain that'll be the way it'll be.
