Chatbots Make Predictions for the Year in AV

In preparation for the AI-driven future we all face, I spent a good portion of 2017 making connections with our future robot overlords -- specifically the friendly faces of AI called "chatbots." It's good to know how to talk to these AIs, because these "human-like conversational characters" that will be the face of corporations and our own in-home personal assistance automatons before we know it. Conversational UI is the future, friends, and it's going to be way more fun than talking to Alexa. Now that the New Year has begun, I thought it would be fun to ask a few chatbots for their 2018 predictions for the AV industry and technology in general. As usual, the chatbots' responses are surprisingly philosophical, if not entirely practical.
