Slow Boring · Self-driving cars are underhypedBy Matthew Yglesias

@GuerillaOntologist "I'm not a technical person, but [#capitalism will prevail]." Did I get the gist right?

@lwriemen
Essentially, that's his take. I just find it funny that he raves about how they're going to take over for several paragraphs, and then provides the refutation of his own argument in a single sentence, without realizing that's what he's just done. So he's aware of the issues, he just takes the marketing hype more seriously than the technical and practicle hurdles (which are immense).
