Self-driving cars can't share the road with human drivers because AI can't account for human stupidity. Hell, most humans can't even account for human stupidity.

Also if we're going to invest that much in transportation infrastructure, we'd be better off bringing back rail travel.
AI isn't much better, really. It still has a hard time distinguishing shadows from people and often time errs in the wrong direction. Especially Tesla's AI since they decided to rip out the lidar sensors and rely on purely visual input to save a bit on the manufacturing costs. There are numerous incidents of Tesla's autopilot being more to blame than the unpredictable humans they collided with.
I like the take on (semi-)self-driving commuter cars from Star Wars: Skeleton Crew.
See those lines on the pavement? All the "landspeeders" on At Attin are basically self-guided streetcars. You input your destination and the vehicle basically auto-steers along the selected course. All the driver/droid/AI has to worry about are braking and accelerating (and since the drive path is 100% predictable, it eases the burden of trying to image the entire road, interpret every possible object, and plan evasive courses. Simple instructions: if any obstruction enters the drive path's safety range, come to a stop).
There are some obvious drawbacks, though; if the power grid goes down everyone ends up stranded, and you can't travel anywhere there aren't tracks, unless you have a non-tethered vehicle (which is fine for pleasure driving, but let's be real, >90% of people on the road in the city are either commuters or hauling cargo).

I mean, it's a neat concept... but they're literally just reinventing trains.
Personal trains (well, for the adults, anyway. That's a schoolbus in the pic), that live in your garage, run on your schedule, and go directly to your destination.
The ease of public transit with the convenience of personal cars.

We wondered what it would take to get the right to splinter...
And we're going to keep wondering, because Elon is the most unpopular person on earth right now. Trump's fans all hate him, and he's too extreme to be liked by anyone else. Who's he think he's even going to find to run under this party? It sure as hell can't be him, because as a foreigner he's not allowed.

Musk threatened to fund a primary challenge to anyone who voted for BBB. Trump threatened to endorse a primary challenge to anyone who didn't vote for BBB. They voted for BBB.
Good luck.
Good luck.
You underestimate the power of money. And Elon's got more money then Trump does.
Ironbite-I gotta respect the fact that he's sticking to his guns at the same time giggling when he gets his ass put in Gitmo.
This is definitely the result of Musk being thin-skinned about his AI previously not "supporting" him the way he wanted it to.

So Elon Musk's AI is just a full blown nazi now

So Trump is being absolutely normal about Musk's new political party.

Ironbite-totally normal.

For Trump? Yeah, this is.
I assume this meltdown is anger over fElon being "disloyal" and not fear of fElon posing any actual political threat.
Trump doesn't have many friends. Finding out that Elon doesn't like him either probably hurt.
