Reply to comment by Fritzschmied in Lyft co-founder says autonomous vehicles won’t replace drivers for at least a decade by lughnasadh

In 2015, I thought the transition would happen starting ~2025. Pretty clearly got that one wrong.

e: 2025 expected

We can do it, hybrid is just difficult to fine tune, and fully automated would be expensive while having lots of public resistance.

No one has enough access to enough roadway to really iron out the bugs, and simple devices that give the ais better information to make decisions would have to become standard accessories on vehicles and miles of highway.

In 2018 or 2019 I spoke with someone who was worked for a company that was demoing self driving cars at a Vegas tech fair and he laughed at the idea that they would replace people in 20 years.

Humans are unpredictable a lot and it's hard to make the machines adapt to that fact.
