This Week in Startups(@twistartups):The blue wave isn’t going to go for data centers… they’re going to go for self-driving. @jason: “The biggest outcome of this midterm election is not data centers…I think it’s autonomy. I think they’re going to block autonomy.” Here’s what Jason thinks regulation could look like: “I don’t want self-driving cars on the road without safety drivers in them.” “Here’s your new cap. You can have like 300 in each city.” “If there are any accidents, we’re going to take you out of commission.” “If you can find people at 25 bucks an hour, you've got to hire them until there are no more.” “You have to pay $10,000 per year in tax for each robot.”
