If I'm in a car that is an appliance that fades into the background so much that I'm not even supposed to think about it (sort of like riding the Acela). Then how do you convince me to buy a BMW? I'd just pick up the cheapest car that gets the job done and move on.
I can see that market being a gold mine for a self-driving startup or a brand like Toyota, but BMW? Can't see how it would make sense for them.

True full autonomy is going to be one of those problems that's perpetually 5-10 years away unless there is a true paradigm shift in how compute is done, IMO.
BMW has plenty of time to figure it out along the way.
