The current HN title seems too definite.
- bendoy 1y agoTook me a minute to find it, but the title seems accurate to me based on the second paragraph in the blog post from Waymo. "In parallel, the companies will explore how to leverage Waymo's autonomous technology and Toyota's vehicle expertise to enhance next-generation personally owned vehicles (POVs)."
- jader201 1y agoNot really. I feel that’s still a far cry from “bring[ing] autonomous driving to personal vehicles”. “Enhance next-generation POVs” could be accomplished by bringing Toyota’s autonomous driving to the same level as Tesla’s, give where they are today. And they’re not definitively “bringing” it. They’re just exploring bringing it.
- bdangubic 1y agobringing Toyota’s autonomous driving to the same level as Tesla’s Toyota would not ever be getting into something to get to “Tesla-level” - like if they were hoping their kids end up C students ;)
- loeg 1y agoSeems close enough modulo HN character limits.
- dang 1y agoOk, we've reverted the title to that of the article now. Thanks! (Submitted title was "Waymo partners with Toyota to bring autonomous driving to personal vehicles")
