It is quite amazing how much progress has been made on self-driving vehicles, dealing with the uncontrolled inputs on a public road, interpreting them, and writing algos to handle unpredictable events is a hard problem.That tech is going to take a long time to become common tho; while computing become cheap in the '80s (earlier for an operation of any size) common repetitive tasks were not automated by small biz for decades afterwards. Heck you can call customer service at many companies today and after one transfer to the correct csr, they have no clue who you are and need you to manually read off your account info or something to key into it. There will also be a ton of political obstacles, imagine how the corruptocracy in, say, Baltimore or the criminal element in Chicago is going to react to those things. |
