Why would a self driving car need to know the difference between a cat and a bench? All it really has to know is that it is an object of a certain size and not to hit it. The things that the car needs to know are largely standardized: the l

I think the easiest solution would be just to allow H1-B visa holders change jobs or quit easily. Currently if you want to quit you only have 1 month to find a job which is nearly impossible because you have to transfer the H1-B visa which
