    Tesla debunked the “self driving is safer than human driving” myth too, autopilot kills at a higher rater than human drivers.

        Don’t you think technology should only be available for mass consumption if it’s safer than the existing options?

          It should be available when it’s similarly safe. We allow 16-year-olds to drive and they are much less safe drivers, maybe even less safe than AI

      Tesla’s implementation is dangerous because one egotistical jerk wanted to avoid using tech that everyone else is using just to “prove them wrong” due to him being a giant manchild.

      Other companies are doing better than an average driver last I checked, but the public expects them to be perfect.
