They are self driving the same way a tram or subway can be self driving. They traffic a tightly bounded designated area. They're not competing with human drivers. Still a marvel of human engineering, just quite expensive compared with other forms of public transport. It just doesn't compete in the same space and likely never will.
- tim333 1y agoThey are literally competing with human uber drivers in the area they operate and also having a much lower crash and injury rate. I admit they don't operate everywhere - only certain routes. Still they are undoubtedly cars that drive themselves. I imagine it'll be the same with AGI. We'll have robots / AIs that are much smarter than the average human and people will be saying they don't count because humans win X Factor or something.
