Systems and methods for incentivizing user-aided improvement of autonomous vehicle control systems and methods of operating a vehicle using the same

An autonomous vehicle control system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• one or more non-transitory memory modules communicatively coupled to the one or more processors;
• one or more vehicle sensors;
• one or more feedback devices;
• machine readable instructions stored in the one or more non-transitory memory modules that cause the autonomous vehicle control system to perform at least the following when executed by the one or more processors:
• detect one or more objects or events in a surrounding environment using sensor data from one or more vehicle sensors,
• classify the one or more detected objects or events,
• generate a plurality of vehicle inquiries based on the classification of the one or more detected objects or events,
• generate one or more confidence levels associated with the one or more objects or events,
• present one or more vehicle inquiries of the plurality of vehicle inquiries based on the one or more confidence levels using the one or more feedback devices,
• receive user feedback to the one or more vehicle inquiries of the plurality of vehicle inquiries using the one or more feedback devices;
• and
• after receiving the user feedback to a vehicle inquiry, generate a new vehicle inquiry when the confidence level is below a threshold level.

A method of controlling a vehicle comprising:

• controlling the vehicle, using one or more processors, to perform an autonomous action;
• receiving sensor data from one or more vehicle sensors regarding the autonomous action;
• developing a plurality of vehicle inquiries based on the autonomous action and the sensor data regarding the autonomous action;
• generating one or more confidence levels associated with the one or more objects or events;
• presenting one or more vehicle inquiries of the plurality of vehicle inquiries based on the one or more confidence levels;
• receiving user feedback to the one or more vehicle inquiries;
• and
• after receiving the user feedback to a vehicle inquiry, generating a new vehicle inquiry when the confidence level is below a threshold level.
