They also dont bitch to you about Ubers taking AI jobs.
-You dont have to tipImagine not tipping the devs of the waymo company that are not being paid a livable wage.
because Uber seems to be a great gigSometimes you read a series of words so utterly ridiculous that your mind refuses to process it.
It's also safer. Automated driving is something we should all be highly looking forwardIt's going to be catastrophic once it happens, the amount of people that drive freight is truly staggering and that amount of people getting disrupted is going to be extremely hard to offset. More than AI office work, that's the thing I'm most worried about in regards to technology taking jobs from humans.
Didn't a Waymo just hit and kill a beloved neighborhood cat recently? And it was entirely avoidable?The fact that it was news is a credit though. About 80 million humans hit and killed beloved neighborhood cats today probably.
The Waymos in Austin seem like decent drivers but they still do dumb shit a lot that borders on dangerous, particularly in where they choose to stop for drop-off/pickup
How does it know when to stop, and how much time it needs to give you to get yourself and your items in/out of the car?
It's always fun seeing those in San Fran, just weird not seeing someone behind the steering wheel and it signals better than human drivers... lmao.I visited San Francisco recently. Was very surprised to see these. Didn't trust them so didn't bother trying.
I wonder what the data looks like, does it rely on public mapping data or do they have a proprietary, ultra-high-resolution data set that has each lane mapped out

You're one of the worst people I know. Tagged.

johnny cabs coming soon
That's the thing, isn't it? They have the tech. They just won't share it.Dunno about how easy this would be to implement nationwide. Checked pricing and apparently Waymo costs more than Uber/Lyft for now on average. Just my limited experience looking into it in my free time when I learned self-driving cars were actually used in practice.

https://youtu.be/BwSts2s4ba4?si=E0LIc5vpbqz-A0KEYou would think that with no drivers the cost would be less. But...that wasn't my experience in the brief time I was looking at prices. Does anyone else have any experience with this?
is it cheaper than Uber and Lyft without the tip?When I briefly looked it wasn't. You would think it would be. Granted, other people may say differently.
I just want to point out that with Waymo they actually incorporate many different types of sensors which does enhance their safety a ton compared to something like Tesla. Under Musk's guidance, Tesla threw out LIDAR as an option, for instance, so Tesla relies solely on video cameras to collect data and make decisions, whereas Waymo uses video cameras and radar and LIDAR.Waymos still drive into phone poles and dive into water too deep to get out of because LIDAR seems to be just another grift too.
I think it's important to make this distinction because I feel like a lot of people see "self-driving car" and automatically assume it's all the same equipment under the hood.
The CEO of the company that sells LIDAR to Waymo was recently fired for unethical business practices. Which appears to be code for, based on the timing of him being investigated, paying people to stage misleading safety videos so he could pump and dumb his LIDAR stock.That's a nice pile of bullshit you are spouting there.
And this is why I think we are many decades away from actual autonomous cars.
Tesla is trying to go without them because it adds like $50-100K to the cost of the car depending on how many lidars and what kind.Where are those numbers coming from?
They absolutely are. Especially since it's way harder to do autonomy on a road where only some cars are digitally connected and most of them aren't autonomous. You're likely to see a dedicated "left lane for AI trucks only" shipping thing first, but even that will fall apart after a week once people realize there's a billion ways for a lane to become blocked but the trucks wouldn't be able to change lanes so shipping would just be perpetually clogged.I completely agree (accidentally hit delete instead of edit for my post you quoted)

And too many areas where it wouldn't be feasible or wise to try to implement it. We aren't even ready to all electric nationally. We have decades of work to do.
