"Effective autopilot assistance features can plausibly get us to 10X improvements in safety and convenience."
So similar to the autopilot feature that Tesla already has in their cars? Plus it isn't going to up safety until there is 100% acceptance in this autopilot feature. Sure your car might be driving safer, but the other people who don't have these features will still be a danger to you.
Tesla's autopilot can and does increase safety even with unsafe vehicles on the road. Look at this video of a Model S moving out of the path of a truck changing lanes into it's space. The car moved before a human driver might have even had time to react.
