Machine Learning still confuses Elephants for Cats.

While it's quite fun if you pin up a cat dressed up in an elephant costume and surely amuses a few colleagues, a self-driving car is not something that should confuse an Elephant for a Cat.

ML is IMO not reliable enough for use in self-driving cars, in complicated situations the driver should take over.

It's not reliable enough now, sure.

Similarly, my 6 year old is also not reliable enough to pilot a car.

Both will change as they mature.

Sure, multiple decades sounds about right (as opposed to current confusing statements like "has full self driving capabilities").
