Yeah, I think semi-autonomous vehicles are a huge milestone and should be celebrated but the jump from semi-autonomous to fully-autonomous will, I think, feel noticeably different. It will be a moment future generations have trouble imagining a world where drunk or tired driving was ever even an issue.
The future is here, just unevenly distributed. There are already people that don't have that issue, thanks to technology. That technology might be Waymo and not driving in the first place, or the technology might be smartphones and the Internet, which enables Uber/Lyft to operate. Some of them might use older technologies like concrete which enables people to live more densely and not have to drive to get to the nearest liquor establishment.
