All of the early data shows that self-driving cars from Waymo are safer than the average attentive driver. This is not the average driver, since of the 36,000 deaths a year from accidents in the US, about 12,000 of them are due to alcohol or impaired driving.
As for writing: AI is not nearly as good as the average professional writer, but they are definitely better than the average citizen of the United States, considering that 21% of adults are not functionally literate in the US. AI has no problem writing at the undergrad level.
