requiring Waymos to have drivers does not go far enough. every time you hit play on Spotify, you must pay a live band to perform the song in front of you. every time you use a dishwasher, you must pay a human dishwasher to wash your dishes for you.

Waymos are significantly safer than human drivers.

@joewrote Literally the example you cited says about how Cruise was an inferior technology compared to Waymo!

@DanArndtWrites there’s also little evidence to suggest human drivers in AI cars benefit safety, because drivers who aren’t paying attention (which inevitably happens when they’ve not driving) are not of much use to prevent sudden accidents

@DanArndtWrites they’re not a charity, they’re not going to run a service to intentionally lose money
