So, some economic value. BTW are those companies profitable at all? Or are they like Uber: losing billions of dollars every year with no chance of ever turning a profit?
Though I will agree that decades-old and decades-long research into computer vision and traffic modelling is finally paying off a bit in automotive industry.

So, unverifiable claims and experiments

Those "few things" are exactly two things, and are evidence of some highly disputable economic value. Not evidence of a lot of economic value.

Or are they like Uber: losing billions of dollars every year with no chance of ever turning a profit? AI taxis mean that there are no wages for the driver. The AI driver is basically a slave. The cost of developing the AI may be quite high, or the increased cost for the cars (more sensors), but those things probably scale better than wages for us humans.
