And it only takes one driverless car having a bug or some kind of user error to fuck it up for every body.

A man can notice a mistake and correct it, a machine will continue as if everything is fine.

I'm just telling you how it is, people's feelings on this won't stop the march of progress. Machines will take over most driving tasks, it's inevitable.

"A man can notice a mistake and correct it, a machine will continue as if everything is fine." Even if this is 100% true you already say yourself that machine driving will still be safer "user error to fuck it up for every body." User error will 100% be why autonomous vehicles will be overall significantly safer to use and be around vs manual driving vehicles.

Again, machines don't realize a mistake has been made, people do

Arguably incorrect statement from you, and either way humans already make more mistakes, fatal mistakes, compared to a full self driving car system like Waymo.

Getting a ride in an autonomous Waymo is safer than an Uber.
