Statistically Waymos are more expensive than Uber rides, but practically as an individual they are often cheaper than Uber, its very easy for the stated price to be lower
So its not even about willingness to pay more
Gig drivers are cooked

- cryptoegorophy 1y agoDriving in a car that doesn’t smell like driver just farted right before picking you up is worth the premium.
- pesus 1y agoA lot of times the Waymo is only a few bucks more, so if you were going to tip the uber driver it balances out anyway.
- panarky 1y agoI'd still choose Waymo if it was 100% more than Uber, the experience is so much better and I feel so much safer.
- aetherson 1y agoYou might, but most people wouldn't, and more to the point, overwhelming more people will choose to drive their own car (or take transit) vs either Uber or Waymo. If Waymo can drop its price by 50%, it could steal a lot of demand from normal cars and transit, but that doesn't seem like it's even on the conversation right now.
