Ya'll are missing the point.
No one is asking for this, and I suspect no one would want it. I imagine they are doing it just to see if it works. Which, as it were, is pretty much how every piece of technology was invented, ever. Like the robot dog thing.
Honestly I'd be curious to see AI try and navigate trails. It's quite interesting, really. You'd all be lining up at the escalator to see an AI try and make it up.

This is a piece of cake compared to autonomous on road driving. The engineering is all about physics. Easy stuff.
Off road, it doesn't have to deal with cyclists darting into traffic, or unmarked traffic circles. It's just about avoiding stationary objects and picking a line that will not destroy the Jeep.
With LIDAR, it can build a 3d model of the terrain in front of it on the fly. Easy stuff. Then, knowing the geometry of the vehicle, pick the best line.
Again, super easy compared to predicting and reacting to the behavior of 5 other vehicles in close proximity.

pretty cool. there are lots of people who are into offroad driving and want to tackle more challenging parts but are very afraid to try. I think this will help keep the fearful people form making a decision that could cost a life.

Kids crying because you forgot the marshmallows?
Overlanding when you snap an axle?
Hiking when you got turned around and lost your way?
No problem! Just call Uber Jeep!

I new in 2022 when I went to buy my wife a new Wrangler that they were going in the wrong direction when I could only buy one with a 3.6 E-Torque
We ended up buying her a beautiful 2018 Rubicon 3.6 and mine is a 2020 Willys 3.6 Both NO E-Torque
The last thing I want to do is be lugging around a 48 volt battery and all its workings on the trail
KEEP IT SIMPLE
Give me diff lockers / 4.88 gears / 37in. tires / 3.5 lift / a good strong V-6 and I am good to go
I am not tiring to get 35 miles per gallon out of my jeep
