- darklajid 13y agoI agree. This is a slippery slope that I (think I can) accept. Perception matters. And that way the car (uhm - the technology?) gains trust slowly - and adapts to our preferences. It's one thing to talk about assistance systems taking more and more control (but being helpful in general, leaving me in control most of the time so far). It's a different thing to talk about self-driving cars that are tested today (even if they're far from ready yet). I don't want to hand over my current car tomorrow and enter a kind of cab that goes 130 max even if there's no traffic. Where I am nothing but a guest. Do these lines converge? Possibly. Or certainly, even. But that needs to be a loooong process in my world and I prefer the route I described: By making the car I know and like smarter. Not by replacing it outright with a one-wagon-train or automated cab. (and that's from someone that considers anyone not driving automatic already being much further down the road)
