[QUOTE="brett636, post: 2415421, member: 249"] Exactly. dudepro completely missed the point and went straight for jobs when I said from the beginning that jobs are not my main concern. When we have companies like GM who cannot design an ignition switch capable of doing the simple job of keeping a car running how are we to expect them to design an array of sensors and cameras that will work 100% of the time to keep us safe as we travel down the road. Where does the ego of creating this perfect machine end and the reality begins that understands that nothing we create is perfect. The safety side of it sounds great, but I highly doubt it will be so rosey once the technology is mass produced by the millions. When that self driving semi truck fails and rams itself into your car killing your entire family are you going to think "Well, atleast the number of human caused fatalities are down overall!" Don't get me wrong, I am all for technology making our lives easier, but the race to replace humans with technology won't necessarily make things better. [/QUOTE]
