If that fleet is big enough, none of us will need to buy cars. That's the future of self-driving cars.

- gambiting 6y agoSo I keep hearing this argument and I just 100% don't believe that. It would already be cheaper for me to sell my car and just take an Uber wherever I need to go. Or get rid of my SUV and get a tiny car for 1/2 monthly cost and just rent something larger when I actually need it. So....I know this, and yet I still prefer to have my own car that I drive myself. What do self-driving cars solve here? A self driving car is literally like a taxi, minus a driver. Yet even if taxis were quarter of their price, I would still like to have my own car. But sure, maybe it's just me. But I think a lot of people prefer to have their own vehicle rather than take taxis everywhere, even if it's logically cheaper thing to do.
