Topic	For those that drive almost hour long commutes to work: How do you manage it?

Or rather than making it harder for less skilled drivers to make a living we could push towards self-driving cars and let enthusiasts drive on tracks or specially designated roads. That way everyone wins. bulbinking posted... Ever heard of hypermiling? Yeah, computers do a lot of it 100x better than people though. That's kind of the point. bulbinking posted... unless you want individuals to not even be able to own their own self driving cars. Ideally you could still own a car if you wanted to, it's just that you wouldn't be able to park it downtown and it would have limited utility in high traffic areas unless you want to send it back to your house when you get to your location or pay for a garage spot. Most people would be perfectly happy to pay for a service that brings a car directly to their location. Basically like Uber only without the driver and accessible anywhere. bulbinking posted... Funny how you make this claim when it hasn't even happened yet for us to see if that claim is true. You're right. It's impossible to know anything without seeing it with your own two eyes. Statistics, causality and extrapolation aren't things. bulbinking posted... False dichotomy. Switching from animals to mechanical transportation is not the same as choosing to have a string of codes control the same vehicle on the road.

I also feel most people who think AI can handle all the subtleties of driving aren't good enough drivers to pay attention to all the things consciously to understand it would only work if ALL the cars were working on the system. I feel like people who think AI won't be able to handle everything a human can are probably haven't read anything about it. A lot of people think AGIs will surpass human intelligence in our lifetimes. Also, it won't only work if all cars were working on the system. It just won't work at peak efficiency until they all are. There are demonstrated tangible benefits that occur at any level of adoption. <cite>EightySeven posted [p:876319103] in For those ...
