I want hyper personal transport.

I want high reliability driverless services we can rent for our own cars.

I want to fall asleep in the car with my family and dogs and wake up on the beach or in the mountains.

That'll be peak Americana.

Yea do what you want outside cities. Within cities, cars are extremely space inefficient.

it'll just drive you to the detention center. yeah let's give Trump and Musk and their friends the ability to autonomously use facial recognition on the cameras in the vehicle to identify individuals wanted by the state and to transport political prisoners directly to prison.

maybe they'll even ban human controlled cars, because they're more dangerous after all. you don't need to control your own destination. you have nothing to hide. right?
