Ok, but delivered by regular human in regular car ? No thanks. I want delivery by unmanned google-cars. For that, I'll even pay premium shipping.
- jfoster 14y agoActually, it might be through self driving cars. Probably come with a regular human, though. See: http://m.digitaltrends.com/lifestyle/google-plans-to-use-self-driving-cars-for-same-day-delivery/ http://m.digitaltrends.com/lifestyle/google-plans-to-use-sel...
- dxbydt 14y agoSir, that is fucking awesome! But why the human ? A Nao (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2STTNYNF4lk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2STTNYNF4lk ) would do. I would bark at Siri for toilet paper, the self driving google car would arrive within minutes with toilet paper, a Nao would walk in through the door, I'd drop my pants, he'd wipe my butt with my newly purchased toilet paper & I'd tip him handsomely and he'd be driving off to the next customer's anus.
- binarycrusader 14y agoBecause, first of all, insurance and state law requires an licensed driver to be present. And second, the human has to deal with the exceptions -- cases where the data is wrong, etc.
