You gotta love people that say: "I drive only stick!" and 90% of those are mediocre drivers to say the least. Human reaction times are north of 200 ms. and cannot beat computerized CVT transmission.

The only thing humans are still better than sensoric is not with reaction, but with anticipation.
I had a couple of situations in the highway (ACC and Tempomatic involved), that driving with a "normal car" (without assistants) I wouldn't have had.
But it is way more confortable. One just need to be conscious of the differences and adapt the driving style.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

My last manual transmission auto was 1988 Honda Prelude. Loved that car. Hated to finally part. Too old, too small. But when I did a series of test drives looking for the replacement, I rediscovered the ease of auto transmissions. Never looked back. Settled on Sabaru Outback. Amazingly smooth and stable in all weather. But it finally became to old expensive to fix. Drive a toyota with autotrans.

I live in the middle of the US. so yes snow. Lots last night. I "of course" drive an F150 ford truck.
IT has the electronic control of all the gearbox things. And like you I am totally amazed they actually work really really well. Except for at very low speed and unsafe high speed(Then nothing can save you because you are the problem not the vehicle)
It is interesting at extremely low speed, extremely slick environment. The electronics are at a complete loss. I did a 3mph powerslide one day in a parking lot with the Electronics on. They had not a clue what to do. Slid for like 20 meters(60ft). Fortunately, I can turn the whole lot off completely and lock the differential and I was able to get out of the lot. It was interesting.

Nice one Peter

It would probably be better to post this in the Free Tools Discussion Boards[^]; otherwise, it'll soon be buried on page eleventy-six, in a big pile of "my score on the puzzle game of the moment" threads.

I tried it twice with ChatGPT content and it said Human written in both cases  .
I will keep testing

|
|

I have a copy of my latest conversations with ChatGPT which I can use to test ... I will try this and post back here soon ...

I my case ZeroGPT is unsure ... but it makes a spelling mistake, there is work to do I guess
