No. The goal of transport should not be to use a specific technology (trains, busses, cars, etc.). The goal of transport should be to move people and goods safely, efficiently, and quickly. When evaluated on those terms, legacy public transportation doesn't fare very well when compared to self-driving vehicles.
- cholantesh 2y agoThis is disingenuous. You yourself were discussing a specific technology as was the person you're replying to, and really, the specific technology is going to guide the conversation of what gets built. An autonomous car isn't the same as an autonomous train or a bus, and having a bunch of them on the roads does not create demand for other forms of transport or infrastructure that supports it.
