Re: Self Driving Cars. No, just no.

@ROMARY you bring up a point I hadn't considered. 

 

What is the motive to take away independent thought? My device will do it for me.

 

We no longer remember phone numbers. An ad for a tv remote will find a movie for you based on a few words. Alexa, Siri and the like will research a topic but provide only the answer that it was programmed to provide thus eliminating critical thought. Bezos wants Alexa in operating rooms and hospitals to do the thinking for the doctor.

 

The push for AI is scary. Google employees recently rebelled against working on a DoD contract because of employee ethics.

 

This is all sold to us to make our life easier.
