Let’s talk about the implications of self driving cars. They’re here. The world is not ready.
If we don’t have to drive, all the real OG drugs should be fully legalized.Having to drive is the only thing stopping me from being wasted every waking moment.
2 more weeks
>>28977031>They’re here.Are the self driving cars in the room with us right now?
>>28977044Yes. I am sitting in one. I can shitpost whenever I want to now that I don’t need to drive
Last night I let my Tesla drive me through Philadelphia during a severe thunderstorm. It navigated rain traffic and pedestrians with 0 corrections. At the end of the trip it was even able to find me a parking space. Literally all I had to do was press a button and say “Take me to (X destination)” I can’t believe it absolutely incredible
Pro: people who suck at driving will let their car do it, and that will be better for everyonecon: people who can drive well will get lazy, stop driving for themselves, and the market will cater to the majority of people who just want to passively move from point A to B.
The world is not ready for self driving cars to simulate road rage to a disgusting degree
>>28977044no? they are outside on the road. it would be weird if they were in the room with us, unless we were in a showroom or something.
>>28977031i-i-i- we should have f-full self driving by 2-2020
>>28977435New flash pal it’s 2026 self driving cars are here
>>28977031>Wake up at 6 am, drive car to work>ask car to go back home>wife uses it to bring the kids to school at 8am>she also goes to work at 9am>she finished work at 4pm>go gets the kids friom school then head home>tells the car to come to my workplace>I finish work and i use the car to get home
I believe Tesla is discussing renting out your car as a taxi, you can passively generate income Y’all better escape the new permanent underclass soon
for me, it's Real Estatei've been buying land well outside commute distance of major metros - in historical downtowns or places with a good view/riverfront.actual FSD will allow 'commuting' within a 400mi radius.>Hop in>sleep>wake up in a new cityallowing you to live rural and work '3 day in office partially remote' for BigCityBigCorp now that full remote jerbs are increasingly scarce.for many this will just mean suburban slop creeps even further out - but may allow for smaller towns separated by mountains, state/fed owned land, or long stretches to be revived
Once self driving tech becomes ultra reliable, it will be a huge win for 2-wheeled riders (motorcycles, bicycles).After dumbass riders going too fast and dying, the biggest cause of 2-wheeled death is people not seeing riders and driving their SUV's into the bikes. Self driving may fix that.
>>2897763599% of accidents caused by people not seeing riders is actually due to riders overtaking on the right at twice the speed limit while filtering and/or driving on the shoulder. The problem will not be solved by self driving cars.
>>28977031no more stoplights, every intersection has traffic perfectly weaving past each other
>>28977054how does it handle massive potholes or driving over fucked up brick cobblestone roads in old city?
>>28977031>They’re here. until one runs over the foot of a black kid then they'll be banned for 50 years
I am about to embark on a self driving trip to New York City wish me luck
>>28977031[X] Self driving cars[] FUNCTIONAL PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
>>28977561>He thinks traffic patterns are consistentActually living a billion miles away from the city sucks and you can't play the cute game where you live in the country and work in the city because everyone else had that idea a week after you did. And now you've got city traffic, city prices, city immigrants, but country distances and liminal soullessness. It's shit.
>>28977561you already can sleep in your car without FSD, just park outside your place of work
>>28977561man even for this website this is one of the craziest larp posts ive ever seen.
>>28977508Would be actually based if real. No more multi car households.
I love my TeslaI will let Elon drive it
>>28977031> The world is not ready.The world is fine. Self-driving cars are not fucking ready
>>28977635>Uh yeah this thing that barely works with four wheels and thousands of lbs of gear?>We'll make it work with balance, weight limits and space limits
What kind of person even gives a single shit about self-driving cars? The shit is not difficult or mentally taxing. Holy fuck.
>>28978382>What kind of person even gives a single shit about self-driving cars?Shills, bots, childless urbanites, and bagholders for companies proclaiming they're researching self-driving cars for the grant money. The CEO of said company, the board members, the politicians encouraging and funding the tech while attempting to restrict manually piloted vehicles, they don't care either way. Their speedboats, yachts, limos, helicopters, business jets, etc. are still human-operated, and their super important jobs of "talking to people" and "sitting at a meeting" means they can afford such frivolities. Meanwhile, (You) need to give up your 20yo Suburban that you drive your family around in,because it's sending racist storms to the migrant boats or somesuch faggotry.
Okay update from my self driving oddessy through manhattan yesterday: my Tesla performance was flawless. The car was able to navigate pedestrians cyclists traffic jams and crossing guards. It made turns and mergers I wouldn’t ever have dreamed of. Navigating New York City was a relaxing and stress free experience! You guys are not ready.
