It doesn't. It will require you to reboot for every god-damned line of code that has changed.

Many of the machines in question will have safe mode walled off for security reasons anyway.

I really have a hard time deciding if that is the scandal the article makes it out to be (although there is some backpedaling going on). The crucial point is: 8% of the decisions turn out to be wrong or misjudged. The article seems to want us to think that the use of the algorithm is to blame. Yet, is it? Is there evidence that a human would have judged those cases differently? Is there evidence that the algorithm does a worse job than humans? If not, then the article devolves onto blatant fear mongering and the message turns from "algorithm is to blame for deaths" into "algorithm unable to predict the future in 100% of cases", which of course it can't...

But you are only allowed to report things that seem important to Americans in any community that might be visited by Americans. Come on, everybody knows that.
