An intelligent cockpit?

BlackBerry to develop intelligent cockpit for upcoming Renault EV

The China-built EV is also being exported to Europe, and will be used by the Renault Group’s subscription-based Mobilize business unit.

This is interesting. I am not big on Chinese-built cars. I will never own one just for the fact that I do not agree with their labor laws over those and cannot justify giving them that amount of money - however, this is something that I had not heard much about from other brands. It seems we are going to be moving in a direction where there are self-driving public vehicles and this is only the beginning.

I heard about this and it sounds like it would be interesting and even useful down the road as the technology advances but I think we are too early into things to see the greater benefits. I know a lot of companies want to make self-driving cars be a standard in the future.

Do you have any concerns with this?

I was talking with a friend not too long about this very subject and he said if people know cars will stop and not hit them, people will just be messing with traffic all day and getting in the way of all the self-driving cars.

I didn't even think of that! Not to mention, they want commercial vehicles to be self-driving as well. So what is to stop people from getting in front of the trucks and then taking out the supplies? I feel like that is something that can't be done because of that unless the trucks are heavily armed and secured with some sort of alert system to the police.

Very true. I am sure this will all be considered and because of these issues, we are a far way out from having anything like this. I can see drones being a normal thing for small deliveries before AI semi-trucks.
