1. A computer-implemented method for updating an autonomous operation feature, comprising:
collecting, by one or more processors, operating data for an autonomous or semiautonomous vehicle during operation of the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle by electronic communication with an on-board computer of the vehicle;
generating, by one or more processors, at least one risk level associated with an update to the autonomous operation feature based upon virtual or physical testing of the update associated with the autonomous operation feature;
determining, by one or more processors, a weighted risk level for the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle, wherein the weighted risk level is determined based upon the at least one risk level and the operating data to facilitate installation of updates to autonomous operation features;
determining, by one or more processors, whether a risk level change associated with installation of the update for the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle meets one or more risk-related criteria for installing the update; and causing, by one or more processors, the update to be installed within the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle when the risk level change meets the one or more risk-related criteria.
