Didn't you admit you don't drive cars and you're whiny about self-driving cars because you're afraid they're going to run you down while you're walking/cycling through your white neighborhood You're less-fat Three Olives

How is a vehicle that refuses to work in rain or snow at all useful in most of the country? How is "doesn't work 150 days a year" a hot take? Maybe they'll work that out in thirty years.

Citizen Tayne posted:Maybe self-driving cars will be ready in thirty years. well that's certainly a step up from claiming they'll never work the next step is to acknowledge that we're mere years away and not decades, like any sane human being knows

runupon cracker posted:well that's certainly a step up from claiming they'll never work I've been saying they're decades off since I started posting about it, which is also the opinion of the guy in charge of the project at Google. These threads are full of people who know nothing about them but think they're going to be commercially available and rolling around on a street near you any minute. That's not happening. We are not "mere years" away either. You're kidding yourself.

But maybe one day they'll finally make an electric motor that can generate enough torque to accelerate

It's an acknowledged fact that the LIDAR systems don't work in rain. That makes them useless in most of the country. You couldn't give a gently caress less about anything that interrupts your preconceived notions? Got it. Keep living in that fantasy world, your anime future is right around the corner.

Butthead posted:Autopilot should not be blamed for any of the accidents as the driver has the ability to override it any time and should be aware of what is happening. until it jerks the steering wheel into a wall because the lane markers disappeared in a construction zone and you don't have time to figure out what's going on and correct

Elukka posted:This is a thing but it's not that one-sided really. An electric car will lose a predictable amount of range in cold temperatures that you would take into account before buying one. A conventional car's battery will similarly lose power in cold temperatures which regularly causes cars with worn batteries to not start at all. Lmao

The year is 2046, because that is thirty years from 2016. I use my mobile app to summon an Uber autonomous cab to take me to work. It arrives with several major body panels missing. The door pops open and I slide into the back seat, careful to avoid the piles of feces and used needles littering the floor. The car shudders off like an old shopping cart, because two of the tires are blown. "This is progress," I think to myself.
