You people crack me up. Self driving car was never anything other than an elaborate PR ploy for Google, the company which derives the vast majority of its income from its advertising business. Who would you rather work for: a company that is "building a self driving car" or a company that tracks the living shit out of everything you do on the web and ruins the web with mostly irrelevant ads? That's what I thought.

And they want these PR gravy trains running as long as humanly possible, so launching a real product isn't even a goal.
