I’m not a fan of self driving cars, but saying that people are able to drive cars is a stretch.

I am never getting into a self driving car. I don’t understand why we are investing money into this technology when people can already drive cars on their own, and we should be moving towards robust public transportation systems anyway. A waste of time and resources to… what exactly? Stare at your phone for a few extra minutes a day? Work from home and every city having robust electric transit systems is what the future is supposed to be.

In general I am opposed to machines being in direct control of weapons. I am also definitely of the opinion that there are lots of people who shouldn’t be driving.

People crash cars far, far, far more than Tesla FSD crashes “per capita”. People are terrible drivers on average.

Back when I still believed, I was excited because I wanted get in my car and take a 90-minute nap until I arrived at work.
With public transportation, you can only be half-asleep or you’ll miss your stop.

I used to dream of watching a movie then falling asleep in bed while my car drove the 8 hours to my folks’ house.
But I’d want that beast to be bristling with sensors of every kind. None of this “cameras only” idiocy.
Someday. Maybe.

I have a 45 minute high speed train commute to a busy end-of-line station. I can sleep, read, work, or just stare out the window and think.
Same commute is probably twice as long by car during rush hour.

I wish I lived in a place that took rail infrastructure seriously. But all our trains appear to be built out of sheet iron and about four nails, old movement is accompanied with eeeeeeeeeccccchhhhhhhheeeeeekkkkkkkscccreeeeeeeekkkkeeeeek
