This was my thought as well: an automated vehicle is in “agent” mode.
The example also demonstrates why an AI in agent mode is likely to be more useful (in many cases) than an AI in tool mode. Compare using Google maps to find a route to the airport versus just jumping into a taxi cab and saying “Take me to the airport”. Since agent-mode AI has uses, it is likely to be developed.
