Heyy Joel it's Tanvir :D how are you?? Saw the video... That scene at 1.36 min was indeed incredible.. They are capable of manyyyy things....thanks a lot for bringing back the Waymo videos ❤❤🎉
No idea what the mentions of "aggressive" relate to, either in the title or here. Huge proportion of other drivers are "trusted" to stay in their lane, obey other rules etc., which is how any of us ever get anywhere at all. I'm constantly amazed how relaxed human drivers on anything but a completely empty highway! The nice thing about Waymo is that it's at maximum alertness ALL of the time and is tracking every single other driver and other element that it knows about constantly. So, rather than just "trusting" another driver, it's watching their movement like a hawk. And every other movement like a hawk. And will respond in milliseconds at the first sign of deviation. I still just don't get what the references to trust/aggression relate to. Seemed like a fair, somewhat uneventful drive all told.
@@mLyonJE And that's the trouble with making these videos--the driving is so thoroughly uneventful that it's impossible to think of a UA-cam-worthy title or thumbnail. The aim of the game on UA-cam is to compete with billions of other videos for viewers' attention. Though of course, the true goal of this video series is to build an archive of historical data on the performance of AVs. But the archive is of no use if nobody knows it exists. And, it's difficult for me to continue to make videos without some form of return on my investment; they're too expensive to produce. (That's been an all-around failure. These videos have never been profitable, but I digress.) So it becomes a balancing act. I can't explicitly lie in the title or thumbnail, that's clickbait. But I want to emphasize the same excitement that I feel about the technology, and encourage the prospective viewer to watch. When I say "aggressive," I'm comparing the behavior of the 5th generation driver to the 4th gen. I had 1,200 miles in the Pacificas and never saw them execute a similar maneuver. The Waymo Driver is driving... out of character, you could say. At least, compared to the majority of my experience with it. So, you'll have to forgive my crude attempts to draw in an audience, and I hope the video speaks for itself.
@@JJRicks (And thinking about how the car pulls out through multiple lines near the start, it struck me as starting to look more like how a human would do it. Don't wait for a gap, you'll be there forever. Wait for traffic that you can DRIVE INTO THE MIDDLE OF and accelerate to join the flow smoothly. Hard to put that in a title, though!)
I remembered you asked that only during the 4th video recording in this session welp What I can tell you is that we started with about 105 miles of range
Sure thing! It was $30.31 for this entire recording session of four videos. 24.76 miles and 1hr19min Batched together because they technically count as one trip
I really want to be sensitive and not come across as a total Tesla entitled prick, but if you have the FSD (full self driving beta) enabled, you get extremely detailed visualizations on your screen. It doesn’t show trees or speed bumps, but it shows all the cars and pedestrians, bikes, etc, that a human would be able to see! It’s really amazing! This is being achieved using cameras alone. What it needs serious help on is being confident and not braking for empty crosswalks. It also needs more help making unprotected left turns from stop signs and stoplights.
i've been looking at almost all the FSD video since it's launched, we're still an order of magnitude less in representation quality. ultimately, it's just representation, we don't really know what FSD is really seeing. But for waymo have way more details, even things like the arms and head orientation of pedestrians (i'm still not sure for those). It's also way more stable in the representation, less giter. Make senses with all the added sensors. both tesla and waymo will have one day a level 5 system anyway, but it's nice to see the evolution one of the OG players.
This one was actually recorded this morning! Rare for me lol
The Waymo inside car screen is veryy veryyyyy cool.... I love the user interface❤
Oop, accidentally marked this video as unlisted. had to fix it, sorry if that sent out another notification
preferred release day: what works best for you xD
Thanks for the video !
glad you're back JJ, and wow, that was quite a merge.

Glad to see ya!
@@JJRicks😇😇
That was an aggressive left turn/merge at the beginning! Waymo trusted that the other car would stay in his lane.
It trusted humam drivers, you should never do that kkkkk

@@JJRicks Aha! That makes a lot more sense now! Thanks for explaining :-)

Очень уверенное передвижение машины... 👍👍👍
Nice video, like ever. 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice video… Battery percentage please. It would be a nice little factoid to add to your videos.
I remembered you asked that only during the 4th video recording in this session
welp
What I can tell you is that we started with about 105 miles of range
@@JJRicksI assume this is video 1. The cutting through the parking lot seems sketch, but was done safely and efficiently!
@@Luke_Starkenburg exactly 👍
Do they work on expressways? What is the top speed that you have ever travelled fully driverless?
45 fully driverless, but they are testing on freeways yes. Up to 65
Thanks@@JJRicks interesting stuff!
That unprotected left was amazing.... would Cruise be able to do it too?
honestly I doubt it, but I'd love to try. Haven't got the opportunity yet
Enjoy the videos would like to know how much the rides cost if you do not mind.
