Are there human “watchers” in your waymos? Or are they completely autonomous?
They just started testing in my city and have humans sitting there not doing anything. So it makes for kind of an uncomfortable ride. Chitchatting with the Uber driver is the worst part of my ride, so I’m looking forward to just robots.
- sbuttgereit 3y agoIn SF, all the Waymo rides I've taken are completely autonomous... no watchers in the car. This has been the regular mode of operation here for quite awhile. This isn't to say you won't see Waymo cars with drivers/watchers, but most of those seem to be transiting areas were they don't operate.
- pb7 3y agoOf course there are no people in the car. I can’t take a walk anywhere without seeing at least one Waymo drive by without anyone in the front seat. This is old news. It’s really really funny reading these takes. We’re living in the future and there are still people making predictions about it.
