A Ride In Waymo’s Fully Driverless Car....

[The Purge]

Waymo’s fully driverless vehicles are doing passenger trips in the suburbs outside Phoenix, Arizona. We got to experience it first hand, and our ride included a close brush with a construction site, a wrong turn, and a flock of pigeons. But more importantly, it got us thinking about what it means when Waymo says the future is driverless, and what we lose when we eliminate human driving.

How nice of Phoenix city leaders to volunteer the people as guinea pigs for the WAYMO AI algorithms to improve.

I drive cars, they don't drive me. My brain is already way better than any camera and software.

I don't want to ride in one, I don't want them on the road endangering others. They will. Wait until there are driverless semis all over.
