> Mark your calendars for 5-10 years after you first see an actual autonomous vehicle having any type of real world application at all. Which you haven't. What's your criteria here? Because I have the same opinion as you... Except I've literally seen experimental autonomous cars driving on the street... Hence +3 years for SV, and +5 for NYC. Taxis are not the vanguard, they're just the most visible. Autonomous trucking is underway and will likely see mass adoption before taxis. The revolution is close - we're seeing disruption everywhere. I could empathize if this was an isolated Google vaporware experiment... but every class of vehicle has promising automation, researched by dozens of companies around the world, and implementing multiple approaches. Most will fail, of course, but we are on the cusp of success.
