I'm still on the fence as to if these autonomous, driverless taxis, cars, boats, planes etc. are really scary or really cool. Whichever it is, we don't really have a choice, as it (the tech) is here and seemingly going to continue to be deployed at an exponential rate.

What is actually scary are human drivers.
LOL, yes, you have a very valid point!
It's the new world. Scary, but also cool. Old guys like me will have to get used to it!
Yes sir indeed! Something we will all have to accept in one form or another I guess. Flying around like the Jetson's would be pretty stinking cool though, and that time is creeping up on us rather quickly.
think of autonomous vehicles as horses.
they'll be smart ENOUGH.
smart enough to know where they are going
smart enough not to run into each other (and other stuff)
unlike many people driving today.
Thirty thousand deaths per year in the US alone
Plus a quarter million non-fatal injuries.
Plus billions of dollars in damage.
yup..pretty damn scary.
