Google just released their own self driving cars. Ugliest thing I've ever seen, but it's simply a prototype and certainly hints to where the future may be headed.

I'm not convinced that a self driving car is the answer to any of our problems.

I am also a big fan of Elon Musk, what he has done at Tesla and Space X is helping to define this decade.
