    I don’t think we’ll ever stop moving the goal posts. You can still meet people who don’t use computers and have never seen the use in them.

      Moving the goal post? Self driving has the word self in it, if anything I’m insisting on keeping the goal post.

        There are 70 drivers for 3000 vehicles. Which goal is good enough for you? We’ll make a note, I’ll tell you when we passed it, and you can tell me why it’s not real. I’m willing to wait.

          I would have imagined self driving means 0 drivers

          It would also include all driving conditions

          For the record, I’m not saying that’s not impressive, I’m just going by the definition.

          I honestly thought we would have automated truck drivers by now, which imo is when shit really hits the fan.

            The number of self-driving cars and trucks has been roughly doubling year over year, there are around 5000 right now.

            FWIW, I don’t think we will ever see safe in all driving conditions, there are plenty of driving conditions where it is fundamentally unsafe for cars and no man nor machine should be driving in them, so in your particular case, you get to wait for self driving cars for the rest of your life.

            I think in 5 years people will be complaining about a lack of available open-source and self-hosted self-driving cars, but safe in all weather? Probably not.
