    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.

    You touch on an important issue: what problem does AI-driven cars solve? If the goal is to reduce accidents, it sounds like public transport on rails is a MUCH better solution. If the goal is to reduce pollution and traffic congestion, also a MUCH better solution.

    Its ostensible goal is to reduce accidents while letting people still own their own vehicle, which is a weird compromise I don’t think we really need.
