Regardless, we already have electricity, self-driving vehicles that barely kills any person, it is called a tram, and it cost 7 bucks to commute. Cheaper than most car insurance.
Maybe instead of begging billionaires to come up with things that are not much worse (just slightly worse), we probably should just build more tram?
but but but! we’re the disruption? How would they enhance our experiences by providing amazing new ways to stay connected in a changing world and provides incredible products that will revolutionnize the life of every person on the planet?

I remember reading how AI-driven cars would face a huge issue of public acceptance because, while a human error leading to a fatal crash is accepted as part of life, an AI killing a passerby or a passenger would be considered a terrible thing.
Guess the philosophers forgot to account for PR.
As a Tesla owner (who don’t like tesla, don’t like musk, and would sell my car the second I would change occupation and not have to work at industries located in no-man’s land), the fact they can advertise their piece of shit system as self driving autopilot is insane to me. What’s even worse is it relies on cameras that constantly get blinded by direct sunlight and covered in dust/snow/mud/whatever.
I feel embarrassed by driving one, but here in Sweden I couldn’t afford any other electrical vehicle that could go as far as I needed to, so I had to choose the lesser of two evils. Too bad so many people gobble up what musk says and acts like the cars are actually self driving, and have to show off the acceleration at every stop light endangering themselves and others around them.
