But yeah, a guy you have heard from before, and he is a lobbyist.

So his entire existence is to influence tastemakers such as ourselves.

Convced.

So I should go into this email with eyes open.

Yeah.

But he was saying that he works in a little bit of the autonomous vehicle market stuff,

convincing the government that we should do more of that.

And, well, I should first say,

someone sent us an article, I think there was both of us, just saying that human drivers are

actually much more safe than you probably think. And like, I don't know exactly how they measured.

I read half the article. Maybe if I'd read the entire thing, they would have explained the methodology a little more. But they're saying that we avoid something like 99.999%

of accidents. And you would need autonomous vehicles to avoid 99.9 with 6-9s in order for them to be

better than humans. And I don't know you know like

what do you count as like avoiding an accident you know but that's I'm sure that they did define it

and I you know I just didn't read it so this is on me but yeah yeah and I think you would have to

price in the convenience. Yeah.

You know?
