Self-driving cars cannot navigate entire cities. No.

From what I've seen self-driving cars can navigate a 4 mile pre-learned route from the showroom to the delivery truck co.

ATLien here. Seeing a Waymo ruins my day. Seeing one of the freeway my whole week.

[-] SolSerkonos@piefed.social 1 points 3 hours ago

Being in ATL ruins my whole week.

Yup waymos are all over the place in phx area. Teslas might not do it but that doesn’t mean nobody can. This isn’t even Chinese electric cars with crazy features as well

[-] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 hours ago

Waymos in philly still have drivers, how about in phx?

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

Tesla is an industry joke. Keep your eyes peeled for Zoox.

Phoenix (and LA) are famous for basically not having weather. These things are working well in Richmond, or Boston.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

Phoenix has all their weather in Late Aug through Early Sep, in the form of monsoons and haboobs. Then again in late Jan through early Feb, in the form of frost and a light dusting of snow that immediately melts.

Your source is waymo's own propaganda (which is NOT about cities in general it's about nine specific American cities), my source against even that much is everyone else seeing them get stuck regularly:

Anyways, I'll leave you to your corporate dick sucking.

[-] lemmyseikai@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

I swear you are implying you have never seen a human get stuck navigating a car for what would seem to be mundane or pointless reasons...

[-] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Humans all have different levels of competency, Waymos all have the same level.

How is this relevant?

If it is relevant it's a strong premise to add to the argument to why we need to strip people of their licenses, but that's not germaine to the conversion.

[-] DarkCloud@lemmy.world -4 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Dumbass, it means what causes one waymo an accident or blockage, blocks them all. This is not so with drivers. What's more drivers learn immediately.

Take your anti-human, pro-billionaire bullshit elsewhere. My point was already proven with Waymo its self not being able to tackle cities in general... Which is the fucking topic. Not how much you'll bend over for them.

[-] lemmyseikai@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

I am not anti human or pro billionaire. Your inferences about me are unfounded. I am calling you out for a lack of functional argument. Your statement "Waymo cannot navigate cities" loads the idea that because there Waymo lacks a human there is no variance in decision making.

Let's concede, for sake of argument, all Waymo make the same decision every time without fail.

Let's further suppose a group of persons learned to drive and were told you cannot pull out into the intersection for a left turn. Now you have a group of people who clearly will make the same decision and hold up traffic.

If there is no one to inform them and in some sense reprogram this, then they will continue to do this ad nauseum.

Thus, there is no functional difference beyond your pre-loaded bias about Waymo cars and improperly trained human drivers.

Imagine giving this much space in your head/life to argue the importance of waymo on A shitpostin forum.
