Hey, not sure I fully understand your question, but are you talking about the initial capital costs to get to a fully "productized" self-driving car? I would leave those out of the unit economics because (I think) those get treated differently financially/accounting-wise and also are not really representative of whether the future business is sustainable (it's more about whether the initial investors get the proper return on their investment).
Might not be addressing your question with that, but I think that's what you're asking. And I think you're assuming the opposite of me which is that they haven't yet productized their offering, but I think they actually have at this point. I definitely could be wrong about that. Just an opinion.
- fragmede 2y agomy point was that using $250k as the cost of the fully loaded waymo car, and then doing math based on that, is basing the math on what is essentiallu a made up number.
