And yet we can't even get cars to drive themselves in adverse conditions. I think we're ok for now, chicken little.

Yeah, but in adverse conditions all they do is accidentally kill more of us. Designing a bot that kills humans intentionally and occasionally kills our dog in the process is still easy.

I think our self driving vehicles are fine for what they are, but trying to get them to understand complex social agreements with how we operate in traffic and urban areas will always be difficult. But to use them for baron land with really no restrictions other then navigating the terrain, is already achieved.
