Rode Waymo a couple weeks ago here in LA while family was visiting. Everyone loved it more than 90% of the Uber rides we took! Never felt unsafe, smooth ride, spotless car. Loved it!
This is an advertorial for Waymo. I’m pretty sure this is sponsored content paid for by the company to KTLA. I’m not mad at it. I just wish there was a “sponsored content” ticker somewhere in the story so we know when it’s paid news story or not.

Since the layout of the streets of San Francisco can be extremely convoluted, I am very surprised there are not more issues.

I love the concept but I can never trust this type of technology with my life lol. Only auto vehicle I would get into would be a train or maybe a plane
Probably won’t move. Easy ways for a burglar to rob people. Just stand in front of the car or hold the door open. Stupid thing probably won’t even call the cops.
How do they get the speed limit? Hopefully not from the signs posted... people are going to start sticking, "200mph" on the signs just to see what these things would do...
Will it intuit q reckless move by a lane changer in busy traffic? It's something experienced drivers do. What about people who don't signal a lane change - react quickly enough?

Maybe it could be important to learn how to use accessibility features on your phone, such as screen readers. And by the time this comes out in Ernest, everything is pretty much going to be accessible anyway. You’re probably going to be able to talk to your phone as if you were talking to a friend.
@@nicandkiritos22 it balances itself out. New jobs get created to replace the ones that are going to get lost. There’s going to be a need for more engineers and mechanics to maintain this technology for example. Also, it’s important to consider why we might want to have less children as a whole.

It is but it’s also significantly more limiting, again it only work in San Fran. Tesla FSD works for the majority well in like 75%-90% of the US, and exceptionally well in similar areas like San Fran and Vegas. There’s some great FSD videos where people test it out with latest software, really impressive how it’s improving and how users can send out issues in real time to Tesla to sort out
Once this has been thoroughly tested and all the kinks worked out, they need to just eliminate the driver seat all together and just make it a room on wheels.

This is really risky stuff man. Type 1 error is really dangerous and statistical software tends to be utilitarian. They'll say tjings like "safer than people" and throw out a statistic like "less average injuries per mile" and then gloss over the details and statistical assumptions that go into those calculations.

Only seen these video of cars in perfect sunny day operations. How about a ride through Chicago in January!?
Who was in the front seat though? Part of the crew or with the car company?
People when they see no driver: 👁👄👁
There was no one in the driver's seat, but who was the woman in the front passenger seat, evidently hiding from the camera?
She´s the artificial intelligence
Got to pay extra for her
She may have been part of the camera crew. There was a tripod in the trunk and possibly a camera. Very cool taxi.

If our ~30 rides are any indication, the car always arrives with the setting at 69.
