There were clear signs that Cruise was rushing things with their expansion, but I didn’t know the performance was this bad. Based on developments from the past few days [1], their safety culture seems to be closer to Tesla’s than it is to W

Hmm, no. No article explains remote operator can take over controls . There's an important distinction between taking over and instructing a car what to do. You don't seem to get that. > You can continue to believe autonomous

You are still incorrect and unable to prove anything you claimed. The burden of proof is on you when you confidently say they can "take over controls".

Can you explain how this supports your assertions? Because this doesn’t say they can take over control of the vehicle or prevent an emergency in the first place. They clear the cars by plotting a new path.

Thanks for the clarifying! This makes a lot of sense. I think NYT did a really poor job of explaining the remote assistance bit.

by ra7 3y ago
Based on what I know, yes. Why would they want to do it with the latencies involved? It’s not a reliable solution, so it’s not used in any safety critical path.

I do because I know self driving companies have talked about how remote operations work. It doesn’t involve taking control of the vehicle. Here’s a Waymo engineer explaining how they can’t joystick a car: https://www.reddit.com&#

No.

This is completely incorrect. Remote operators cannot “take over controls” at all and hence cannot help in any “emergency” i.e. safety critical situation (e.g. preventing a crash). All they can do is assist the vehicle with things drawing

> IIUC the leader, Waymo, does all the computation in the cloud, so you're hosed if the network goes down. All the computation for driving happens on the onboard computer(s) and the maps are also onboard, so they can drive just fine

We don't know if that's actually true. Tesla claims "end-to-end AI" in their next iteration, not an "end-to-end model". Wayve [1] is the only one who has an end-to-end model that takes video input and outputs a

Nope. It was Cruise who gave rides only at night. Waymo has operated 24/7 since day 1. The only restriction has been who is approved to ride (they have a long waitlist).

Fair enough. Maybe not “all of it”, but most of it is covered. Waymo has always operated 24/7 since the beginning and had 99.4% fleet uptime [1] during the past winter season (SF had record rains). They used to shut down during incleme

Well, Waymo is now giving rides in LA as part of a promotional tour. So you might be able to see one sooner than you think. https://youtu.be/iNlS1LSDjl8?si=Me-zKKD7g0dPo6tH

They do have screens in the back, but it doesn’t show any visualization like Waymo does. It just shows a map.
