About This Quiz

Science fiction has been telling us for decades now that the future will be automated. Robot servants, artificial intelligence, and self-driving cars are going to be around every single corner, right? But as much as science fiction has prepared us for it, and as much as this has started happening over the last few decades in real life with automated assembly lines and little robots like Roombas, are we really ready for it? 

When progress takes a new leap forward, people get scared. When the internet first appeared, critics tore it apart. It was useless and it was a fad. No one would ever use it for anything like shopping, how absurd! When computers were first invented critics thought they might be helpful in the military or for industrial applications but why would anyone ever have one in their home? It was silly. When the telephone was invented, Western Union passed on the opportunity to invest, sure that the technology was all but useless. As a people, we love the idea of progress but many of us fear it when it shows up. Change is hard and weird and scary. Self-driving cars are no different.

Like it or not, self-driving cars are going to be a thing. The question is, are they going to be your thing? Let's find out!
