Why does Ninja fear self-driving cars? Exploring popular Twitch streamer’s car collection
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS: Automobile technology has improved rapidly over the past 20 years with companies like Tesla focusing on sustainable travel and developing innovative and cutting-edge technology. However, it doesn't seem to sit well with Twitch star Tyler Blevins or Ninja as he is popularly known to his fans.
In 2021 the controversial star revealed his biggest concerns with the self-driving technology being developed by companies such as Tesla and NIO. However, he still has an envious car collection, even if it excludes self-driving cars.
'Human error right?'
Despite the popular belief that self-driving vehicles will eventually be safer than controlling a car yourself, not everyone seems to be fully convinced by self-driving technology. Back in 2021, in a video on YouTube, Ninja discussed the issue he had with automated automobiles and expressed his main reservations about the technology.
In an AMA video, the YouTuber revealed why he’s not fully convinced self-driving cars will be safer than vehicles controlled by humans. The well-known gaming personality expressed his worry that an automated car wouldn't be able to avoid an accident. Ninja finds it difficult to imagine how a self-driving car could handle such kinds of situations given the numerous threats posed by other drivers and mistakes brought on by human error. He said, "Human error, right? There are going to be way too many people who are relying on the self-driving car to handle accidents or like be able to react to something quickly, that’s not going to happen."
