Singapore beat us to self driving cabs

Fuck you. Most Asian countries don't seem to value human life very much compared to Western countries (they crank out babies like it's from a factory, wonder why they don't value people, LOL) so of course they DGAF anywhere near as much about whether it's actually safe or not. It fucks up and runs into a crowd of people and kills them all? No problem, shoot the programmer in the head and say "LOL, sorry about your dead family members, tough shit, go make more!" and move on. But go right ahead, go to Singapore and get into one of those deathtraps, be sure to post livestream of your violent death. You 'autonomous car' fags are pathetic.

In the US cagers kill 100 people every day. Worse then every other kinds of terrorists. We better switch to autonomous cars soon. And public transport and bikes.

Self driving cars are fine when you got perpetual traffic jams with 2mph average speeds.

Crowded cities with cars going 60+mph and 90+mph highways are a different story.

robots have faster reaction times than humans, never get tired, never text and drive, never road rage... there is literally no way a robot isn't superior to a human driver at any given speed and condition.

I'll rather be on a road next to a car that's being driven by a robot than middle aged soccer mom coming home from a wine tasting night while reading facebook.

Tell that to the people that have already died in Tesla autopilot crashes.

If something as advanced as a plane still needs human control then cars definitely still do too. I'm not trusting my life to a made in China $20 PCB.

It will happen eventually but no for at least 10 years. We've still got along ways to go.

The irony of this post.

Are you from colorado?

Cages are still inefficient and take up too much space.

I don't doubt you but I would looooove to see sauce on this

Someone died three months ago (late May) in the States and it wasn't revealed until a month or so later

Self-driving and driverless aren't the same thing. People need to get than through their fucking heads.

Tesla's autopilot isn't real autopilot and it was never meant to be used as a driverless system. It's an assistant system that is awfully named.

Besides modern planes can fly completely automated. Including take off and landing. The reason we don't fly in planes without pilots is that people think human pilots are somehow better than a computer.
