> Did you read the article? Unfortunately, I did. Did you? The article claims that even after all the safety mechanisms were installed, people were still irrationally afraid of automatic elevators, and that a PR campaign was required to help people to stop fearing automatic elevators. The implication is that people are similarly irrationally afraid of self-driving cars. I claim that this is an idiotic comparison because people should be afraid of self-driving cars until they are proven to safe and reliable. So far, all we got is PR. As you so sensibly pointed out, building a self-driving car is orders of magnitude more difficult than automatic elevators.
