So your claim that this means true self driving is a generation or two away is false. First, the technology in question is already sold in luxury cars and SUVs and is trickling down as a safety feature in more modest vehicles as well. And second, we already have fully autonomous cars on the road now, they are still in the experimental stage, we can improve the accuracy of the sensors, but hese are issues that can be resolved in a few years, not generations.

Anything with a computer in it is hackable, the question is how robust the security can be... Humanist_Activist May 2015 #7
