GM says Google's self-driving cars could someday pose 'serious competitive threat'

Despite all of Tuesday night's excitement, even Sergey Brin was quick to admit that Google's self-driving cars are years away from hitting roads in any significant volume. General Motors is keenly aware of the road Google is trying to go down and the serious competitive threat that Brin's dream represents. Mark Reuss, GM's product development chief, told reporters yesterday that Google may evolve into a "serious competitive threat" if it continues dedicating time, research, and money to the self-driving project. But he also took a slight jab at the company in the same breath, basically saying that anyone with Google's deep pockets could likely pull off something similar.
