Breh self driving cars (Tesla's) are already safer. They are working on getting multiple times safer at this point. They collect so much data their algorithm is growing rapidly. They are the future of the taxi biz
Yes but they're on the roads with people that make random split second decisions. They become safer when you don't have to account for human error in the other drivers. People carry insurance. How does the legality of a self driving car work? Is it insurable? Who is liable for what it does? The computer code they're programmed with can determine who lives and dies in a catastrophic event. Does Tesla have to give access to those calculations to the government so it can be reviewed? More importantly when it's put on a piece of paper for review and your loved one dies as a result of computer programming logic what do you do about that?

We just aren't at that point yet. I'm not saying we never will be but we aren't right now.

:mjlol:@winb83 all them "safe" dividend stocks canceling on you.

:mjlol:Maybe you'll listen to me next time. All my dividend stocks surviving, thriving, and most importantly, paying.
The only stocks I had that cut the dividend were Ford, Carnival, Disney, and Footlocker. None of those were "safe" dividend stocks. They all either completely shut down or had questionable at best balance sheets.

Ford was questionable for the dividend even before this broke out. Carnival and Footlocker weren't really my own idea. As for Disney I don't own them for their dividend really as it was pretty small a percent and a half. I own them for the growth potential in the future.

My "safe" stocks like Johnson and Johnson and Abbvie actually raised the dividend very recently. Apple is talking about increasing share buybacks. I do but distressed companies from time to time. It is what it is.

:mjlol:You argued with me about EPR @ 12.00 a share. It's since tripled and never cut it's dividend.

:mjlol:If you had listened to me you'd be eating. I told you it makes no sense to have 100k invested and not get at least 25% yearly yield.

:mjlol:My shyt is 5% PER MONTH (what you get in a year), and haven't had any issues whatsoever.
