Sometimes the media/Muskists make it seem like the AV revolution is coming within 10 years though.

Side note: I'd love for some tech that can scan a few hundred meters ahead and detect potholes, ice chunks etc.

Fully autonomous driving will take a full infrastructure and standardization before it can ever be completely effective. Individual cars looking for lines on the road and relying on radar signals will never be able to do it.

Potholes not yet but even the collision avoidance on the wife's Outback will pick up anything larger than a good sized cat. Considering that is far from cutting edge stuff then it is feasible.
