training documentation can be amusing too...
"Use the Login button to take control of an Autonomous vehicle." says the presentation, right next to the view of the interface in question, which clearly has no Login button.

you use the Acquire button to take control of a vehicle. If you manage to use the Login button, well, I'll be impressed.

I wonder if that's left over from an earlier version of the system...

You might enjoy writing Interactive Fiction. Software is available that makes it a thriving and rewarding hobby art form these days. Its creation requires an understanding of artificial intelligence, a deft touch with human interface and user expectations, and good writing. All of which you have.

> PRESS LOGIN BUTTON
There is no login button here.
