It would definitely not be one of my top priorities. I don’t like anything that takes jobs away from human beings. Despite how sinful we can be, I still think we’re better than than any AI invented by man.

Well Tesla doesn't have a very good safety record and that's with people behind the Will. So there's a lot of work to be done to get those vehicles to function properly without a person behind the wheel. But I could not imagine them doing it for $30,000, you can't even buy a small economy car for less than $30,000 unless you look real good.

@Mark Driesenga I have not heard of that ep, but I need to lunch and will hunt for it on Youtube for a "listen while I munch" deal.

I would probably try it out if somebody went with me, but I don't think I would do it on my own. At least not my first ride.

Tesla actually does have a Robo taxi and that’s the one that’s supposed to be less than $30,000. It is a two seater vehicle with no steering wheel.

I think the biggest surprise to a lot of you will be the fact that a self driving vehicle might very well much be within your reach. I know in the beginning a lot of people thought that only folks like Stevie Wonder and Ronnie Milsap and people like that whatever be able to afford one, but I think you’re going to be pleasantly surprised.

It’s looking that way that will possibly be able to get one if we decide to. When I was looking into it that day when I saw the post on Facebook, it showed that the Tesla is $30,000 and that’s a good deal that you can’t beat, especially for a self driving car.

I understand. Though $30,000 does sound like a lot of money. It is a lot of money. But if they can fix things to where those cars weren’t more properly than the price would be worth it.
