THE Cybercab it is designed to perform robotaxi services and promises to be able to transport passengers to any destination without human intervention. The announcement was made at the Warner Bros. studios in California, at an event called “We, Robot,” in a nod to Isaac Asimov’s classic science fiction work, “I, Robot.”

Although many vehicles today already have automation that, in theory, allows the driver to delegate certain functions to a computer, the person behind the wheel must still always be alert and ready to react if the vehicle is faced with an unexpected situation. With automated cars, Tesla already faces a number of lawsuits related to fatal accidents involving its vehicles. /With AFP
