They keep expanding in places where it doesn't snow.
They've got testing facilities in Detroit ( https://mcity.umich.edu/what-we-do/mcity-test-facility/ https://mcity.umich.edu/what-we-do/mcity-test-facility/ ) ... but I want to see it work while it is snowing or after it has snowed in the upper midwest.

If AI driving only works in California, New Mexico, Arizona, and Texas... that's not terribly useful for the rest of the country.
- iamdelirium 1y agoThey're testing in Denver and NYC so its coming.
- nebula8804 1y agoDefine the rest of the country? If you refer to rural areas, thats 1/7 of the population and ~10% of GDP. They can be tossed aside like they are in other avenues.
- SketchySeaBeast 1y agoDoesn't it snow in NYC?
- everforward 1y agoIf I were in charge of Waymo, I’d roll out in snowy places last. The odds of a “couldn’t be avoided” accident is much higher in snow/ice. I’d want an abundance of safety data in other places to show that the cars are still safe, and it was the snow instead of the tech that caused the accident.
