- tempestn 10y agoI except reality will fall somewhere between their two responses myself.
- Teever 10y agoOr maybe yours will be. I give it 50/50.
- ars 10y agoGoogle started in 2009, it's now 7 years later. We (they) are no closer to success than they were when they started. (The cars can only drive on pre-programmed roads with a human marking any changes such as temporary traffic lights.) What makes you think that they will succeed in 5 years if they have not solved the hard problems in the last 7? No. Self driving cars (trucks actually) will only drive on limited access roads AKA freeways. Those roads are controlled, and any changes can be easily programmed in.
