What do you do for cabin ventilation? ]]>Mar 29th 2008 12:54AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/Mar 28th 2008 9:48PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/Mar 28th 2008 10:18PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/
Or it steers you down the wrong course.

Great, anything that will let drivers pay LESS attention to the road... ]]>Mar 29th 2008 12:54AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/
I am in the technology tools business, but I am not on board with this.

I am all for technology that knows and does not question it's master, namely ME.

The minute it has divided loyalties, or supercedes my control, I am done with it.

No black boxes that record data for insurance lawyers. No On-Star that interfaces the on-board systems and has a cellphone without any reporting interface. (without activating the speakers for hands-free calling, you have NO IDEA what that phone is transmitting to whom.)

I don't even want an integrated phone, integrated GPS, or anything else permanently built in. It only gets obsolete without being replaceable, and I want to choose what phone and/or GPS unit that I use, based on it's merits.

Automation, no thanks. If cars get automated, I go classic. hell, I'll go air-cooled and pre-electronic. A 60's Porsche 911 sounds good, or a classic Jag sedan for a bigger car. Nice and low-tech.

I do have the Hal9000 eye as the wallpaper on my iPhone, but it has yet to tell me "No", or sing "Daisy" to me. That might be a neat trick, though.]]>Mar 29th 2008 1:36AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/Mar 29th 2008 1:39AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/Mar 29th 2008 6:47AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/Mar 29th 2008 10:15AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/28/im-sorry-dave-more-autonomy-in-the-name-of-safety/
Glad it helped you, but have you ever heard of Pay-At-The-Pump?

When a Gas Station is closed, it isn't exactly closed anymore.

That certainly doesn't outweigh the implications of an un-monitored cell-modem connected to nearly every system in your car, possibly reporting to people you don't know.

Thanks. I'll pay at the pump, and find my own way, and use my own phone.

In essence it would be like a real video game (in the 3D sense) combined with actual photos (like Google's streetview). Did look pretty nice.]]>Mar 30th 2008 3:09PM
