it’s not remote operated and it is also not much more expensive and i have no idea why you assume costs will be constant.
i take waymos all the time, often replacing my car, i have never had a single issue
- HDThoreaun 2y agoLiterally so easy to find out that it’s remote operated with the operators taking over on average once per mile. That can’t scale in a cost effective way unless you only use it like once a week. People who need to drive everyday can’t afford it. Otherwise they’d just be ubering everywhere now instead of owning a car.
- whimsicalism 2y agoyou literally do not know what you’re talking about, source me a number on the “once per mile” intervention - i’ve driven hundreds of miles in waymo and never had an intervention of course they can scale in a cost effective manner, the operating costs are theoretically the same as just owning a car but they get to amortize it across many different users and don’t have to pay for human labor
- HDThoreaun 2y agoThey do have to pay the human labor because it’s not self driving.
- whimsicalism 2y agosource your claims. i’m pretty sure waymo doesn’t even support remote operation as such, just waypoint drawing
