I'm afraid no. Uber cars are driven by human being as well.

I am looking forward to Self-Driving Cars and hope Google and other companies will be able to make it on the market as soon as possible.
I like it just because it would be much safer that human drivers as I see too many car accidents just because of the drivers' careless driving, drunk driving,furious driving and answering phones while driving. There are too many problems to solve, but safety should always come first and it means a lot to me, to you, to our families and friends.

Does Samsung sell anything else except bombs, uh?
Submission + - Curved TV isn't dead yet. Thanks, Samsung (cnet.com)
cherishjoo writes: When the first curved TVs appeared more than three years ago I asked whether they were a gimmick.
As a TV reviewer I had to give the curve a fighting chance, however, so I took a curved Samsung home to live with my family for awhile, in addition to subjecting it to a full CNET review.
In the end, I answered my own question with the headline "Great picture quality, but the curved screen is a flat-out gimmick." Since then most of the video geeks I know, including just about everybody I hear from on Twitter, Facebook and article comments, pooh-poohs curved TV screens as a useless distraction.
A curved TV takes the traditional flat screen and bends it along a gentle arc. The edges end up a bit closer, ostensibly providing a slight wraparound effect. Curved TV makers, citing huge curved screens like Imax, call their sets more "immersive" than their flat counterparts, but in my experience that claim doesn't hold water at in-home (as opposed to theatrical) screen sizes and viewing distances.
The only real image-quality benefit I saw to the curve was a reduction in reflections in some cases. That benefit wasn't worth the slight geometric distortions introduced by the curve, not to mention its awkwardness when hung on the wall. That said, the curve doesn't ruin an otherwise good picture.
In TVs, assuming similar prices, curved vs. flat boils down to a choice of aesthetics.

I always believe VR will change the whole world. I have a VR device myself but I don't use it a lot for playing games. Watching VR videos is my favorite.
