I hate ADS tech in cities so much. The pedestrian/pet detection is god awful. Doesn’t matter if you cross at designated crosswalks or just crossing the street.

I hate ADS tech in cities so much. The pedestrian/pet detection is god awful. Doesn’t matter if you cross at designated crosswalks or just crossing the street. Many close calls.
Cruise _was_ the king in this aspect and avoided them completely but Waymo is getting up there.
Side note: GOOG and other tech conglomerates are clearly monopolizing the tech industry - from ADS to AI/AGI/LLM. It’s no wonder these companies have kissed the ring of current administration to get the green light on acquisitions needed to setup monopolies and effectively become a monopsony (particularly in labor to keep wages down).
- fragmede 2y ago> The pedestrian/pet detection is god awful When I walk in front of a Waymo it stops and gives me space and doesn't come anywhere near hitting me. That doesn't qualify as "god awful" to me. do you have a different experience?
- rangestransform 2y agoWould any smaller of a company had the funds to acquihire an entire darpa challenge team and have them seemingly fruitlessly work on autonomous driving for over 10 years? We have already seen what happens when the parent company is any less patient and deep pocketed, with cruise and GM.
