    I rode in one last month, down the highway.

    Even the most pessimistic reports of human involvement still puts them in the ‘mostly self-driving’ camp, and I’d rather have one with a fallback than one without.

    Should I disbelieve my lying eyes?

      mostly self-driving

      Yeah I wouldn’t call that self driving.

      Here is a genuine question for you, how did the cost compare to an uber ride? Was it a fraction of it?

      Technological leaps have always provided huge reductions of cost, I do wonder how expensive robo taxis would be compared to regular ones

        I don’t think we’ll ever stop moving the goal posts. You can still meet people who don’t use computers and have never seen the use in them.

            There are 70 drivers for 3000 vehicles. Which goal is good enough for you? We’ll make a note, I’ll tell you when we passed it, and you can tell me why it’s not real. I’m willing to wait.
