He’s not wrong though. Tech isn’t being developed to improve people’s lives. It’s being developed to deepen pockets. There is a very low chance of a future in which NY becomes some “old school holdout championing people’s rights against the tyranny of self driving cars,” so better to work on regulation, adoption, and putting systems in place now to provide the best public benefit rather than either banning it outright until market forces overwhelm that, or ignoring regulation and letting market forces dictate what rules would be in place there (hint: none). Hate capitalism, not the Mayor that is trying to plan ahead for the city
