Waymo remote operators don't drive the cars remotely, they plot manual courses and the cars follow them. Trucks have worse failure modes and are less likely to be able to recover even with that much prompting.
- intrasight 3y agoI am referring to the future when this is real
- astrange 3y agoI'm not sure it can ever be real because of lightspeed delays, and because the trucks might get stuck in ways its sensors can't see. (Since if they could see it, they could fix it.)
