By successful you mean none? No company is "successful", not even Tesla.
- tsimionescu 2y agoTesla is the least successful of all these companies. Waymo is successfully running a robotaxi business in a few select locations. Mercedes is successfully offering a full self driving solution in certain very limited but very well-defined parameters. Tesla is selling a driver assisted system that can't reliably turn the car or park it without manual intervention a decent percent of the time.
- Zigurd 2y agoWaymo announced a $5B investment to expand service. They also announced a new sensor suite. The new vehicle will have no steering wheel. The vehicle and sensor hardware are real and being demo'ed. They charge real money and have 10,000+ paying customers per week. That's small compared to Uber, but the expansion signals that Waymo can scale up without hiring a lot more vehicle monitoring support people.
