Not a fan of Tesla or Musk, but I think it always bears repeating in these conversations that AI driving will be much safer than human driving if it isn't already.
Unfortunately, accidents will happen, but when an accident happens with an AI, ALL the other AI's get to learn from that failure going forward.
I'm very happy that in my old age, I'll have some future version of this driving me around... or more likely, taking the wheel from me if I do something stupid.
"This thing that does not exist and nobody has any idea how to make it" will totally be safer than human driving.
You know what is safer than human driving and we know how to make? Trains.
I'm still waiting for my train from LA to SF. It's been in the works since I was in college. I've already graduated, had multiple jobs, early retired, and there's still no sign of it.
I'm pretty sure people get hit by trains on a daily basis.
