RE: What cha' gonna do.....

in #zap7 years ago

maybe try to reinvent ourselves in time before we lose everything. eventually most jobs will be taken by robots, and its already starting, i was passed by one of google autonomous cars

Sort:  

no kidding?
awesome.
my son and I were talking about HIS son (my grandson)
who is totally UNinterested in learning how to drive a car.
all he cares about is transportation.
getting from point A to point B...
as cheaply and safely as possible
getting a fancy car
to impress the girls
and spend most of his income on
is so
NOT HIM.

pretty soon he won't have to.
autonomous cars from Uber...Lyft..and others

I was very similar...I almost bought a Honda Fit...oof...

Luckily a little "convincing" from my significant other (who sure as hell didn't want to be seen in that pile of junk) changed my mind.

It's been a long time now, I'm far more interested in the mechanics of the car, and I'm more attracted to a little flash. Don't know if it's an age or mid-life crisis sort of thing...I don't overthink it.

But I can't wait for autonomous cars either...it'd be nice to be able to relax during a long road trip...and maybe drive down airline prices.
