The path is building an entire centrally-directed transit network out of custom vehicles. Waymo currently doesn't look anything like that because they're still doing R&D on the critical technology, but if we have good self-driving even in just nice weather, it's very easy to imagine a radical transformation of transit. Of course you can make money on that.
- gambiting 3y ago>> it's very easy to imagine a radical transformation of transit Really? How? Because I don't see it at all, and I don't think it's "very easy" either. All they have created is a very slightly cheaper taxi service. How does that transform anything? You could be taking a taxi instead of driving everywhere right now - why aren't you?(not literally you I mean people in general) Is that going to change if the ride is couple dollars cheaper? Of course not.
