If you are silent, you are not good people.

The world signed a disaster declaration for the USA for terminal stupidity.

No species this stupid was meant to survive. We won't.

"Both lead to immediate adjustments in driving, more quickly than any human can react. "

Again, sort of. ABS isn't quicker than humans react, it's a stopgap measure for divers without sufficient skill. It only turns on after you have fucked up and locked your breaks.

"I don’t know what it is, but they generally execute smooth comfortable turns."

Likely a combination of software that defines comfortable zones, including adhering to speed limits and paired with an accelerometer.

I think we are still a very long way off from autodrive. Being able to handle changing conditions like freezing rain and black ice or a flooded road will take time.

**Poof! Done.

But nothing's changed?

Exactly.

A fantastic skill to learn is to be with people, and enjoy each others quiet company. You don't need to be engaging and witty all the time. This image is the Venn diagram overlap where introverts and extroverts can be happy together.

Could you not just wear a VERY thin, lacelike abaya and hijab? White to reflect maximum sunlight, cotton to stay cool through absorbtion and evaporation of sweat and some kind of lacelike fabric pattern so it does not insulate and is maximally breathable?

That poor thing is going to get shot by animal control for its lack of fear around humans.

Adopting American fascist rhetoric is a stinky cologne for the Conservatives. They wear the unbearable stench well, it suits them.

Such a weird thing to do, in a time of heightened state sovereignty and defense against American turncoats, to adopt the language of your opressors. Creepy as always. What a freakshow.

"humans drive based on vision alone"

Not quite. We use our sense of touch and direction to feel our momentum, like how hard a turn or acceleration is. We can feel steering traction changes like when tires begin to slip under acceleration/deceleration. We feel when we're starting to hydroplane. Cars are a cornucipia of touch feedback that drivers respond to.
