It's been a long time coming, but Waymo is doing it. Waymo is scaleable and on the march! They've been announcing plans to roll out in new cities every month or 2 all year, and by the end of 2026 they'll be testing or offering the public rides over 30 metropolitan areas.

I'm most curious to see how they do in the winter city of Minneapolis over the next several months.

Competition does encourage action. Glad Tesla started rolling out their robotaxies.

The dancing robots are going to drive them.

Good idea, robots don’t fall asleep.
