GuestIt’s a Prius!!
If machines drive cars, then we don’t need “performance” cars anymore. We just ride in the back.
In fact we won’t need to own cars as a fleet of taxis would know where to pickup passengers and get them to their destinations.
Of course, the government will have to ban human drivers from roads because they would be causing all the accidents.

ParticipantThat is pretty cool, and it hits home for me, personally, too.
The first day of the first programming class I ever took (It was 1982. The language was FORTRAN). We were discussing uses for computer programs. I vividly remember the professor saying that the general consensus in the computer industry at the time was that it was impossible to write the software that would allow a car to drive itself in real-world conditions. That was simply not a reasonable application for software.
Everyone pretty much nodded in agreement “yeah – that would be pretty much impossible.” I vividly remember him saying it and I remmeber agreeing with him wholeheartedly.
And ever since then, I always paid attention to any article regarding self-driving cars because I started to think maybe it was possible. 30 years later, the impossible is possible. Really neat.

With Toyota and MS teaming up, when you get a blue-screen of death, the system will probalby shut down the brakes, go full-throttle, and lock the steering dead ahead.
