Uber spent a decade telling cities that protecting taxi drivers was anti innovation. Now that robotaxis threaten its own business, suddenly limits on new competitors sound reasonable. Amazing how quickly »disruption« becomes »regulation« when the disruption reaches the boardroom.

Honestly the sooner we have fully autonomous cars the better. This growing pain in the worst part but think about things The ability to watch TV, eat, read, nap, work in your car if you want while it drives you places a safer experience due to faster reaction times less traffic jams and slow downs due to more coordinated timing better independence for the infirm and elderly (this is one I think a lot of people overlook) Too many people are still scared at this point but overall this would be a positive step for societies. I know there are negatives (car could repossess itself or it could cart me off to jail) but we can’t always fall in the trap of “it has to be 100% right”.
