People will be arguing that "true self driving is impossible" for decades after we've all been already happily riding around in cars without steering wheels.
Level 4 self-driving with remote assistance will allow "driverless" cars in the next decade. Over time, the cars will need to phone home less and less. It's possible that even in 100 years, there will still be one single remote assistance center in operation for the 1 in a million situation that the computer still can't handle.
By the time that last remote assistance center closes, nobody will even care about debating whether self-driving cars are bullshit or not.

Sort of like speech recognition... it was going to be big! and then it really couldn't understand as well as people thought... and it sort of fell out of the limelight. But quietly it started to be used for phones and now it's pretty much here.
