An interesting thought; a human population might be to go to war against their ‘enemy’. Might be to have a lot of children so they can work in the textiles mills or automobile factories. Might be to buy cheaply-made products. Might be to swell up the masses of the religious organizations. So, imagine that we will live in a civilization who employ robots to make our products, Self-driving trucks, Self-driving machine of war. Japan, Israel and European countries are already doing that same futuristic AI.

Statistically less to go wrong with a train then a car.

If you could choose just 3 (JUST THREE) parts of the technology that would help explain how the whole thing works, what would it be?

Example:

1. Software

2. Hardware

3. Electrical

People tend to forget things after 3, especially my grandpa or 5 year old who might be easily distracted.

Bonus points if you can come up with visual analogy..

Example:

1. Software - Brain that tells the other parts what to do.

2. Hardware - bones, muscles that enable the body to actually move

3. Electrical - Blood, respiratory system keeps the body going

Thanks!

I was listening to NPR the other day when their expert was asked if he though that this weeks accident will delay wide deployment of self driving cars. The expert's opinion was that it would. However I feel that the opposite is true. I believe that this event will eventually speed up the adoption of self driving cars.

I feel that before this unfortunate accident, the advancement of the technology was moving very quickly, but almost nothing was being done on the legislation required to allow self driving cars on our highways. More specifically, who will be responsible if an accident occurs. Is it the car's owner, the manufacturer, or could the programmer who wrote the code be held responsible? Without new laws on the books, fully autonomous cars will never be legal. Today the victim's family announced that they are suing Uber. This will require our courts to start the sussing out how to deal with accidents involving self driving cars.

What are your thoughts?
