I'm really mad at several college professors in the CS department at my undergrad who told us all "self driving cars are coming" and trusting them as authorities I quashed my many qualms and wasted a lot of time in otherwise important conversations about urban planning insisting that we account for the impact of this 'inevitable' variable.
"They will be safer than human drivers." tapped into my confirmation bias ... I hate drivers, after all. Of course every one could be bested by a machine. 1/
@futurebird I’m laughing about this because I just went to a conference on self driving vehicles in June… we’re 90% of the way there, which means we have 90% more of the time and money left to spend on this project.
