Autonomous driving is the ultimate arbitrage on time and capital. When you step into an autonomous vehicle, you're not just sitting back—you're reclaiming hours that would've been lost to driving. That time becomes your own: work, learning, earning, whatever adds value to your life. Meanwhile, the vehicle itself transforms from idle downtime into productive infrastructure. Your car is no longer a consumption sink; it's an efficiency machine. The real shift isn't about convenience—it's economic. You're liquidating wasted hours into compounded personal returns.

Exactly right, but this logic is too idealized. In reality? No matter how much time is spent in traffic, there's no way to work, haha.

Damn, this logic... Time arbitrage is indeed an angle, but the premise is that it can really drive automatically, right?

Bro, this logic is pretty clever. I never really thought about the concept of time arbitrage.

Sounds ideal, but I just want to ask... will anyone really obediently work inside an autonomous vehicle? I just want to sleep anyway.

Sounds nice, but how many can actually make money? Most people are still just scrolling on their phones...

Monetizing time from this perspective is brilliant, but the prerequisite is that autonomous driving can really operate reliably...

It sounds ideal, but what about real road conditions? Can traffic jam time be counted as working hours?

Feels a bit far-fetched. When autonomous driving actually launches, are you still thinking about work? Dream on.

Autonomous driving is really time arbitrage. I even feel sleepy while driving now.

Wake up, autonomous driving is just time arbitrage, I love this logic.
