AUTONOMOUS TRAP 001 - JAMES BRIDLE

As part of Futurs non conformes #3

From 01 May to 31 October 2017

Autonomous Trap 001 by James Bridle is part of the exhibition “Futurs non-conforme#3” proposed by Nicolas Maigret and Maria Roszkowska for the Jeu de Paume virtual space.

Self-driving cars will be available to the public soon. Singapore is considering the purchase of a fleet of 300,000 driverless taxis to replace the 780,000 manned ones currently clogging their streets. Google’s self-driving car initiative, now called Waymo, has been investing in the technology since 2009. Tesla is already implementing limited automated features in the United States, and even slow-moving large scale car manufacturers like Ford are getting into the game. If driverless cars become anywhere as ubiquitous as the horseless carriage, innocuous vandalism like the Autonomous Trap 001 is just the beginning the problems engineers will have to solve.
