Yeah, as a skateboarder in SF a few years ago, the driverless cars for testing were already way more predictable and generally chill than the human Uber drivers, who would do all kinds of crazy, erratic things.
In an ideal world, we'd have physical separation for peds/bikes/skateboards/etc and motorized vehicles, but if we have to share, I'd much rather share with AI than humans.
(That's my pedestrian perspective. As a driver, I love driving and would hate to lose the right. But honestly I think the writing is on the wall, especially in dense urban environments.)
