you know that big hunk of metal that sits in my driveway and likely yours too is the second-highest expense that we have and most of the time just sits there not being used I hope that this partnership between Google and Ford will help fix that a trio of anonymous internal sources are claiming Google and Ford have a partnership to announce in Las Vegas next month at CES 2016 this is said to be a joint venture to work on self-driving cars and will come in the form of an independent company Google is great at creating smart systems but people have been worried about the company's ability to manufacture of vehicles after all you would be trusting your life to Google every time you hop in one of their automobiles as cute as their little cars are we would rather have a renowned car maker in the labs this gives you a certain level of reassurance in addition companies like Google mercedes-benz and Volvo have promised to take responsibility for actions caused by their self-driving systems Google has also pledged to release information on whatever accidents their driverless cars get into it's important to keep people informed and Google is certainly not falling behind in this sense this deal is also said to be non-exclusive which makes us wonder what the plan really is we'll other companies be able to jump in on the deal would they have to go through both Google and Ford to join the fun we aren't sure just yet but we will find out all the details at CES 2016 now what I'm really excited about is the so-called taxi like or uber like service with driverless cars imagine for a moment if you just press a button on an app and a driverless car comes to your door and takes you and your family wherever you want to go my question is would that be some sort of monthly or yearly subscription service or do you pay a la carte like you currently do with uber pretty exciting stuff because the whole car thing is just outrageously expensive for the value that it gives there's an opportunity there to be disrupted and let's hope is the one to do it what do you guys think let me know in the comments below thanks for watching Android army my name is Jase and I'd love to connect with you right here on Google Blas or Twitter and you don't want to forget about my brothers and sister and Android we're working super hard super-hard to be your source for all things Android
