I’m not ready to give up the feeling of being behind a wheel, wind blowing my hair, driving at speed on the open road. Vote for our SxSW panel submission - The Automotive Singularity is Not Near: http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/47256

The panel will discuss what we lose – and gain – when we switch to autonomous driving cars. What the transition might be like, and new problems and unintended consequences this technology might bring.

I'm Heather Schlegel, a social scientist fascinated by the way technology is changing our lives.

I contacted Alex Roy to talk with me about the future of cars. I learned about Alex years ago when he broke the Gumball 3000 record – driving from NY to LA in about 31 hours. I have to admit I was a little jealous of that road trip. I wanted to know Alex’s opinion about augmented driving technology. Was he willing to give up the wheel to a robot? Because I wasn’t.
