Yes, definitely. I can't wait for the possibility to go over business documents or doing ANYTHING ELSE really, while driving. Think of what people can do with the average 40 minute-1 hour commute instead of focusing on the road. They can use their laptops, go over what they are going to do that day, students can study for an upcoming exam on their way to school. Sure, it sounds irrelevant to some people. "What could I possibly do productively in a car?" I guess that shows more of what kind of person whoever says that is, rather than creating a topic of interest for people to actually ponder that question. A person who is motivated and knows what their short term goals and long term visions are will NEVER question what to do with their time, no matter what the situation is or where the person is residing.

I used to drive back when I lived in Florida, and drivers make dickhead moves like that all the time. This is something that should've been implemented in cars a long time ago. Just goes to show how technology solves more problems than any legislation ever has or will. As far as replacing human drivers with auto pilot completely, that will take time, and that change would have to be widespread (beyond just Tesla) to really be effective. Any technology implemented to accommodate for human error is good for now, but for a technology to replace human ability completely, it would indeed have to be 10x better, and ubiquitous for it to make an impact.

I don't understand how this could be life threatening. This is like a normal thing

The world will advance whether or not somebody wants it to, the best thing to do it to go with it. Technology will allow us to use our time as humans more as we want to rather than what we need to do. We are going to be more efficient because AI will control the small details of our lives.

Very true. No matter what example I use, whether it be something as simple as a grocery shop, to something as complex as flight, these time savers allow people to have an increase of time to think and develop in ways that weren't possible before. When a man was destined to have to hunt for food every single day, or deal with starvation, he didn't have time to ponder about anything else. His sole priority was to get food. Once farming, industrial marketplaces/restaurants, and other food caveats came into play, man no longer had to worry about missing a meal. Now all of that time that would be spent thinking about killing the next buffalo can be dedicated to ANYTHING else.

The key part of that last sentence, though, is the word "anything". That is what separates one man from another. One man's "anything" can bring him wealth, health, and happiness. Another man's "anything" can bring him despair, hatred, and depression.

I hope everyone who just read what I wrote thinks about what their subjective "anything" filler is, and if it is benefiting you - or doing the opposite.
