But who cares? They convinced us somehow that self driving cars are important, but it’s just self-important, gets the investors attention and money. Now time to move on to the next big thing.
- davidcbc 9y agoYou don't think self driving cars are important? Can you elaborate on why not?
- lafar6502 9y agoNo need to rush it. Companies developing the tech might say it’s important to have it now but mostly because they need money now to survive. And they dont have any product to make the business real. So, they sell the hype, I would not pay attention to that. Maybe do a reality check every 5 years instead of jumping up at every ‘breakthrough’ news from the ceos.
- davidcbc 9y agoOf all the companies doing driverless cars Waymo has the resources of Alphabet. They don't need the money to survive and aren't looking for their next round of VC money. If a driverless ride hailing service isn't worth paying attention to what is?
