Seems smart
I’ll admit it. I really enjoy Waymo’s.
Seems like a better plan that Tesla’s crash into the nearest wall feature.
Good to see the United Terrorist States are supporting local jobs.
This reminds me of Amazon’s Just Walk Out using workers in India.
Yes, that is well known and as it should be. You can’t trust AI under special circumstances
Are the people that are intervening certified or licensed by an authority that has jurisdiction? I mean, if I am sharing the road with other vehicles, part of the whole public safety thing should back up to some sort of certifying authority and at least a path of accountability.
Wasn’t this already known like months, if not a year(s) ago? It’s the same for the little robot food delivery bots
What’s wrong with this? People are acting as if this is a bad thing.
Do those workers have valid driver’s licenses if they are controlling a vehicle on the road?
I doubt it, but would argue they should have to have them
If anyone has ever tried to drive in the Philippines, you will know that it’s complete mayhem. Most people, especially in the provinces ride their entire life without ever getting a license. You even see young kids who look like 8 or 9 riding bikes.
Even if you do have a license, it’s easier just to pay a fixer (bribe) than to go through the official process.
Drink driving is the norm. Nobody, including police, cares if you are drunk.
Cuz they drive so much better in the Philippines?
We’ve always known that Waymo’s are remotely monitored and that those humans regularly intervene to send them planning instructions. Doesn’t really matter where those people physically located.
AI is such wizard of oz vibes.
The Mechanical Turk rebrand has gone undeniably well though.
*Assuming direct control.*
Based on this I’m never driving in the Philippines.
Spawning just before a car crash must be hella stressful for those Filipinos. Godspeed!
Is outsourcing this worth the cost savings? Wouldn’t it have loger latency times to communicate with somebody in Asia? I feel like for a car every millisecond counts. The publicity for this isn’t great either. Are the margins really that tight for a company like Alphabet? Puzzling imo
In China they literally use sim racing / video game peripherals to take control of the car when it gets stumped lol pretty cool tho
