Many people view technological advances as a good thing; progress. Others resist change, and meet these advances with skepticism -- and sometimes fear. 

If you've ever watched an episode of the futuristic Netflix show, Black Mirror, you might be leaning towards the latter. 

No matter how you perceive the future of technology, the fact is, it's coming. We already have automobiles that essentially drive and park themselves, but according to automotive expert Jason Torchinsky, autonomous vehicles will soon be on every street in America. 

In his book, Robot, Take the Wheel: The Road to Autonomous Cars and the Lost Art of Driving, Torchinsky discusses the cultural and conceptual impact of driverless cars and why they are really the first mass deployment of robots in human society.

Listen in as Torchinsky explores what’s ahead and considers what we can do now to shape the automated future.
