- narrowrail 10y agoHuman liberty is the default, so we'd have to opt-out of it, which I will never support. Humans will still do the majority driving in 20 years.
- drmindmachine 10y agoYou may not have the choice in future. When was last time you chose primary functions in indiv auto? Billionaires excluded. Custom tertiary features humans may choose, yes...but primary functions no. Ahhh and freedom from mundane/routine and headaches in traffic may TRUMP (haha) freedom to choose (your type of liberty) I theorize. 77M Millennials would also welcome freedom from driving. Plus 75M Baby Boomers would if not welcome the freedom may be forced to give it up...due to health/aging. GenX'rs - at least sample of 1, moi, - would love the ability to do other things while being driven. And I drive the "ultimate driving machine." https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/unsafe-any-speed-humans-gisele-waters-ph-d- https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/unsafe-any-speed-humans-gisel... 20 years too long in my predictions, mostly due to convergence of demographic realities and exponential advances in AI self driving.
