It'll be super funny when self-driving cars are seen following the at-times-ridiculous GPS directions. For the foreseeable future, I wouldn't want to be in a car without a steering wheel.

You know how in Google maps you can drag and modify routes and it'd modify the route? Id imagine self driving cars will support that.

GPS directions are only ever ridiculous due to a lack of information. In many cities (Sydney Australia, for example) data is good enough and the roads straightforward enough that chosen routes are always either ideal or sufficiently close to ideal.

Haha, apparently you are being downvoted for being a realist. (Oh, fun, me too. Looks like I need to drink some kool-ade.)

You're not being downvoted, the comment is, because it doesn't contribute to the discussion.
