Automation in general is the future. It eventually performs better than humans, and that's a good thing, because it allows us to focus on creative endeavors rather than the mundane. We'll have self-driving cars one day, and they will be better in every regard. This coming from a manual transmission enthusiast. I sold the Prius instead of the Acura TSX because I appreciate the fantastically constructed antiquated technology in the Acura over the Prius... and this must be how Curmudgeons are made. Often I wonder if I made the wrong decision, but I'm leaving open opportunity for a CyberTruck or something equally futuristic.
