Anyway, I don't have time to proofread everything. Someone here decides that making tons of (29 in this case) is fine. So, no. I don't have time to proofread everything. I barely have time to proofread everything. I have to write the responses before the topic gets too far (I think there's only like 9 pages for PotD) if I don't want to have to bump it. And I'm only at work for so long. And do other stuff while I'm there like watching a show with my buddy, or paying a game with him. And I'm still not giving up control. I've been driving for over half my life and haven't wound up hurt or dead yet, so I'll probably be fine driving myself. I don't trust the AI, and I think they still have their limits when it comes to addresses. Just like any navigation system. They'll probably end up using those. But again, I don't plan on giving up control of my life to AI. And I trust myself and certain friends/family members more than AI. If neither of us have been hurt or killed, then I don't see a problem. I shouldn't be forced to put my hand in the life of a machine (or hacker). So, I won't. Also, AI can have faults. They aren't perfect like you apparently think so. And only a tyrannical government would drive regular safe driving, which many humans can do. Many can't drive drunk, hence why it's illegal. Because the way alcohol affects the body. And driving without a seatbelt is bad because it's safety issue. But there have been many people, and will continue to be many people that have driven for decades without so much as a fender bender. Taking away driving to put our lives in the hands of a machine is ridiculous... People should be able to choose. Just like people can choose to eat healthy, or eat junk food. Or people can choose to work a safe or dangerous job. People should also be able to choose whether they drive, or someone drives for them. If they want to drive, then let them... And people who understand science will probably also fight. Just because someone doesn't mind self-driving cars doesn't mean they only want self-driving cars. Or want the ability to drive themselves taken away. You act like everybody who likes science will love self-driving cars just because. But that's not true. Some people still want the ability to drive themselves wherever, whenever. Just liking science doesn't mean you want you driving privileges taken away. Especially when you've done nothing to warrant this...

Commerce may not care about feelings, but some people (so some customers) do care about feelings... That's the point. There are people who go to certain food places where it's basically home-cooked meals because the food feels made with love. And many people still make stuff for their families. Just because you have no heart doesn't mean other people feel the same. Not everyone cares about love, but not everybody just buys whatever, either. And in the end, that doesn't go against the point. The point is that while they probably weren't correct in everything they said, they were correct when they said, "Machines can't replace the heart and soul of a human worker." Because they literally can't...

And just because you don't like my personal anecdote doesn't make it less true. The fact is, not every trucking company is going to want to switch to self-driving vehicles. And you don't need a personal anecdote to tell you that. Just like how I don't trust them, many other people don't. And that's according to the article I posted before. And some people don't want to fire truckers that have worked for them for years if they don't have to. Many people are fine with their own drivers and still make good money. Not everyone is going to fire people just because they could get a self-driving vehicle. They still run a good business. They just want a good business filled with people instead of cold, heartless machines... The $60,000 was for the self-driving trucks that the whole paragraph was talking about. Again, context clues were there. You just didn't read them, I guess. But from what I heard, regular trucks cost about $125,000. And self-driving trucks cost that, plus extra for each level of autonomy they are given. Plus $5,000 for a fully-automatic or automated mechanical transmission. Which apparently is needed for self-driving...

You say that anybody who enacts the AI or Robot ban will fall behind, but you also have no proof of that. For example, if a restaurant does that, many people will probably still eat there if they like the food. Not to mention, with the amount of people who don't like or trust Ai/Robots, those places could end up with more business... They only have to adapt if people stop going there because they want robots. But according to those polls, people don't trust them. And trust drops as more comes out, apparently... So, it depends on what the people want. Because it could be that the places that adopt AI and robots lose customers instead... And the slow progress of Self-checkout proves my point. Because as wide-spread as they are, they aren't in every major business. After 30 full years. And these are business that could afford them, but don't even have one. This proves my point that technology is moving much slower than you think... And just because you can raise the speed limits with self-driving cars doesn't mean they will. But people would just probably rather drive themselves. Instead of having to wait for a car to come pick them up...

You say numbers will rapidly drop on people disliking self-driving cars, but probably not. Like the article said, many won't even get into them. And not owning a cell phone is different. Even in the example you give. You say they wouldn't own one because it was for rich people. But that doesn't mean they wouldn't want one. It means they didn't think they'd be able to get one. In the case of self-driving cars, it looks like people wouldn't want to even ride in one, let alone own one. So, I don't think it'll change quickly. And there will be even more pushback if they try to make it mandatory... Not only that, but I even showed an article that said people are getting less trusting as more comes out. According to the articles, you're saying exactly the opposite of what it happening... According to the research, as more come out, people will be even less trusting of automation... And while you may not put too much stock into the phrase, "Not ready for Primetime", the article does. People could mean many different things. But it all basically means that people aren't ready for self-driving cars. And you call them ordinary people who know nothing about AI. And they may be ordinary people who don't know much about AI (though I sure many know at least a little), but those are the customers. The ones you have to convince to use the stuff...
