Elon Musk says AI-driven cars could dominate driving within five to ten years.

The article says that timeline is too optimistic because safety, regulation, and edge cases remain major obstacles.

Tesla and Waymo recalls highlight how hard it is for autonomous systems to handle rare, complex situations.

Industry forecasts suggest fully driverless personal cars will stay niche into the 2030s, while robotaxis and autonomous trucks may scale sooner.
