Right. So the marginal benefit of a self-driving car to people who feel that they already drive on autopilot most of the time is low. Especially when they weigh that benefit against the risk of putting their life into the hands of a 4000lb machine controlled by what? A computational system programmed by the same group of people (in the general public's mind) that brought them clippy, the Hawaii nuclear missile scare, algorithmic flash crashes, bloated ad-filled websites, telephone bots, 8 remote controls per living room, and Flappy Bird.
