They will all license from the winner of the autonomous race. Regulation will come at them fast as failure modes get discovered. Wouldn't surprise me if they'd get faa level of certification required within the following two decade. That will strangle newcomers and stragglers, cementing the working solution in the market
- ghaff 8y ago>faa level of certification required within the following two decade If that's the case (and I'm not saying it isn't), you then probably need maintenance and update processes on par with commercial aviation. And that probably implies certified organizations renting/leasing vehicles only. And, at that point, you're probably cheaper just to have a minimum wage human driver. Mainstream self-driving implies that people can buy cars at a similar price point that they can today and maintain them in the same loosey goosey way that many people also do today.
