You must keep a steering wheel. The AI may be good but if it fucks up, you gotta be able to correct that shit. AI in cars isn’t anywhere close to good enough anyways.

    It turns out that humans monitoring an AI are basically useless at stoping the AI from messing up. We don't have the reaction time to take over and be able to drive the car instantly when the car has been driving itself. That's why there aren't any companies making level three autonomous vehicles, they all skip from level 2 (like Teslas) to level 5ish (like waymo and GM cruise). It either needs to be all human, or all AI, we can't do an in between
