I'm optimistic. I agree with Musks estimates. At most I see first fully autonomous vehicles being on the roads within 5 years. Yes, they may only work in place

Yes, they may only work in places with clearly marked streets but if I could use my autonomous car for daily commute or roughly 50% of the time it's still an incredible achievement and well worth the cost.
- rm_-rf_slash 10y agoI live in a small enough city where I need to drive for some things but I can walk to work. If an autonomous car could help with little things like shopping for groceries or driving to get a haircut, then my last mile problem would be effectively solved. I think that there are a lot of little steps towards 100% autonomy that will still provide tremendous value to people, even if the product is far from perfect.
- fullshark 10y agoThose two ideas are contradictory. It's not fully autonomous if it only works in ideal conditions. There's already a bunch of prototypes that work perfectly in ideal conditions.
