While I agree that AI in current forms can be very useful, I believe that the problem of e.g. driverless taxis requires understanding of other humans and empathizing with their intentions to be truly viable. Driving is a social activity, and the current self-driving tech is about as convincing as trying to carry on a conversation with Alexa at a party. I do believe that we need AGI before self-driving will be more than a better cruise control.

I think the better cruise control is very useful and I love to see it, but Tesla’s marketing of it as “full self-driving” is disingenuous as best, and industry-chilling + deadly (as we’ve seen) at worst.
