Many accidents on our roads also machines usually do not make
happen since people are driving too many mistakes, there had
drunk or under the influence of been accidents with self-driving
drugs. cars in the past.

- I think having a chip inserted in our brain could help solve the
forgetting vocabulary words problem, this kind of technology
looks like a chip, but it can safely be put in the human nervous
system. It will enhance our IQ and make us more intelligent,
with this technology forgetting won’t be a serious problem
