Ok. So Waymo has developed a 100% reliable full self driving system that handles every possible situation. It was never put in a situation in which it would have given back control to a human driver, because that would have meant "going smoothly" to driver assist mode, and we have already said that this is impossible.
- rcxdude 6y agoI was not referring to the dynamic shift while in use, I was referring to the development process. Regardless, the waymo system does not have a driver assist mode, it's either in control or it isn't (and during development it may be overridden by or automatically fall back to a safety driver, who has a job akin to a driving instructor, something which general requires more qualifications and attentiveness than a driver).
