Tesla’s self-driving cars have been around for a while. It’s important to remember that there are two types of autonomous or self-driving cars. The first one doesn’t require the intervention of the driver. The second is a semi-autonomous. It’s equipped with a self-driving system, so it requires driver intervention.

It’s predicted that, in 2050, autonomous cars will represent 100% of the vehicle fleet in the world. In some surveys, people are worried about the use of these cars. They also fear that their safety will be compromised because drivers are no longer in full control. Furthermore, the AI of this type of car can decide to sacrifice the life of the driver to save other people’s lives. Read more…

The world does not stand still! People are constantly inventing something to make their lives easier.

It is strange that how we can easily discuss the technologies like self-driving cars today. It was just the last decade when the world get introduced to the carts that run on the fuel instead of horses and other animals. Today, we are working on the cars which don’t need any human involvement to drive around the cities.

Talking about the self-driven or autopilot cars, two companies are investing heavily in it. One is the world renowned automobile manufacturing company Tesla, and the other is famous because of its search engine services and other tech devices Google. Read more…

Most often than not, it is hard to tell when a brand has failed, most particularly if a company fails while its brand retains its fame. In a merger or acquisition, the better-known brand represents the new company, regardless of the financial stability of the company before the merger took place.

While no one wishes for a company to fail, it’s the reminisce-inducing companies hanging on the cliff of bankruptcy that grab our attention. We watch these companies flounder until they give their final bankrupt breath and pass into the records of history. Read more…
