Driverless cars give us the heebie jeebies
About this episode
Before jumping into driverless car talk, Ben shares a heads up about fake jobs at credible companies that are actually phishing scams meant to steal your identity and hijack your bank accounts. Beware the job offer that seems too good to be true!
Jon, Cassidy, Ceora, Matt, and Ben reflect on whether they trust software to operate a vehicle.
Cassidy tells us that she once sat in a car that parked itself and screamed the entire time.
Matt brings us back to reality, reminding us that airplane flights have been automated for a while now.
Matt and Ben point out that in the medical technology space, robotic surgeons are so advanced that they have become more precise than human hands.
