    -As a father I hope my children never get behind a wheel like we do today. I'm all for AI, especially for those impaired.

Sure. There is lots of good that can / will come out of self driving cars. I think it'll be interesting to see how much any gains in efficiency will equate to lessened environmental impact.

I guess should acknowledge that that my qualms are selfish. I'm a Teamster. Obviously not the truck driving sort, but I know a lot of younger people who are planning on taking that career path. It probably isn't going to last long enough to see them to the end of their working days. That sucks but is what it is.
