Elon Musk needs to get his head out of the crytocurrency cloud and back down to Earth.
A car that is driverless doesn't mean the occupants can sleep in the back seat. If Musk is so interested in creating his own currency for space travel, he can probably do it himself with his logo on it rather than a dog face.
This is exactly the problem with computer technology. Computers are an adjunct to humans and not a complete replacement. Over and over again when having transactions by computer I am reminded how very fallible computers are in dealing with humans. They don't interact well and when demanded to perform in ways that are somewhat unorthodox yet not out of the ability for processors to handle, they fail.
I am a human being and I keep in mind that computers are made by humans. They are as fallible as we are. They accelerate the human thought processes, not replace them.
AI IS A PROBLEM THE USA MUST CONTAIN!
The driverless component to these vehicles, including trucks, is that they enhance safety, but, they do not replace the human brain or savvy for the culture.

Tesla stock (click here) sank as much as 6.5% on Monday after reports of a fatal driverless car crash outside of Houston, Texas stirred investors.
Two men died on Saturday night when a 2019 Tesla Model S driving at high speed failed to negotiate a curve on a windy road in Spring, Texas.
Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman said in an interview that, based on a preliminary investigation, there was no evidence anyone was at the wheel of the vehicle at the time of the crash.
"Our preliminary investigation is determining-but it's not complete yet-that there was no one at the wheel of that vehicle. We're almost 99.9% sure," the constable said, per the Wall Street Journal.
