"If a company is fully automated and has no workers do they pay everyone? Lol"

you lol but entertain this thought experiment - it's a little stretch of the imagination but totally feasible in the right conditions:

a benevolent philanthropist buys an autonomous car and gives the car ownership of itself. the car's directive is to operate at cost and provide transportation to humans. the car operates on a model not unlike uber but without profit concerns. it arranges its own maintenance and budgets for replacments parts, etc. how much cheaper would that be than paying for a cab or uber?

of course none of that is feasible because the law doesn't allow for a car to own itself and there's still some R&D before it could operate on the level i'm talking about but still... if profit was removed and everything operated on cost alone, how much cheaper and accessible would things become?
