I may be wrong but the reason why I guess it remains vaporware to the masses might have something to do with the regulatory and bureaucratic red tapes that ensures it continues to stay a vaporware.
- vel0city 6y agoGoogle showed a self-driving car taking a blind guy through a Taco Bell drive-through. Clearly ready for prime time, probably just a year off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdgQpa1pUUE&feature=emb_title https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdgQpa1pUUE&feature=emb_titl... That video was released on March 28, 2012. Nine years ago in 48 days. You'd think if it was just a little regulatory red tape a multi-billion dollar corporation or two (or three) would have figured it out in nine years. Maybe its more than just a few rules changes that's keeping truly full self driving carson some very select routes.
