Really?\u00a0 Now we have another acronym we need to remember in our texting vocabulary hell, EDA (Emotionally Disturbed Autos). If it can read my emotions, will it take action?\u00a0 For example, say I&#8217;m thinking about ice cream and the emotional pleasure it gives me, will it drive me to the nearest ice cream shop?\u00a0 What happens if you should accidentally think about sex, which we men rarely do, is it going to drive me to the nearest gentleman&#8217;s club or Rosie&#8217;s Red Light House and then tell my wife out of guilt?\u00a0 Will it talk to us? Can we program it what to say and not say?\u00a0 Can you see the ethical dilemma here?<\/p>\n<p>I can see me waiting at the red light and a very attractive woman walks by my car.\u00a0 Is my car going to whistle creating sexual harassment and divorce litigation?\u00a0 What if you are ADD?\u00a0 Is it going to create havoc in the streets when your thoughts change so quickly?<\/p>\n<p>Why aren&#8217;t people satisfied with just getting from point A to point B?\u00a0 Well, here in Naples, Florida some of the elderly get to point B, by going left at point C, and then drastically cut back right at point Z to get back to point B.\u00a0 It&#8217;s like a geriatric bumper car track here.<\/p>\n<p>Will it become self aware and have an AEB &#8211; Artificial Emotional Breakdown?\u00a0 Will it need time off to attend AAAC &#8211; Artificial Autonomous Auto Counseling, leaving me with no means to get to point F, I mean point B.\u00a0 Will it decide its relationship with you isn&#8217;t working and catapult you like a villain in a 007 film?\u00a0 Will it drive off the cliff, knowing it can&#8217;t live with you anymore and forgetting you are still strapped in.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t need a Thelma and Louise logic board.\u00a0 What if it needs to talk at 2 am and insists it doesn&#8217;t need fixing? Is it going to incessantly beep when it wants attention or shut off all power to your smart home and change your smart music system to the Willie Nelson channel?<\/p>\n<p>What if it feels like being a prankster and tries to outrun an AV police car?\u00a0 Will the two AV&#8217;s hash out their emotions while me and the officer have a few donuts together? Will it act like a smart ass auto? Will it think it&#8217;s a 1977 Trans Am and try to fly over Buford T. Justice in a flash of glory?\u00a0 Will it watch Knight Rider and contract MVPD &#8211; Multiple Vehicle Personality Disorder?
