Passenger has to flee rogue car. Passengers have to be transferred from trains and trains rerouted. But technology professor feels bad for the rogue car?
The guy felt bad for the car? Is this news even real?
I bet the meter is still running.
Waymo really needs to be held accountable for putting their users in danger.
just wait until the automatic locks prevent you from leaving
Waymo: „The fare is 18 credits, please“
This is what happens when they start rolling out the data from Miami….

This is how Waymos respond if your payment is declined.
This is why I only take Johnny Cab. They only try to kill you if you don’t pay.
I had to go to Austin for work last month and was driving downtown when I saw a Waymo, to the left of me, for the first time. In my head I was like „wtf is all over this car? Why are there so many, what are those, cameras? Sensors? Oh wait. That’s one of those self-driving cars.“
The second I realized this, the Waymo drifted into my lane, no turn signal. I slammed my brakes which ofc pissed off the person behind me. I let the Waymo come over (SUPER slow) and was finally directly behind it. I watched as it then drifted into the next lane (to the right again), no turn-signal, and almost popped the curb onto the sidewalk where people were walking and riding bikes.
I was shocked. I gtfo of there and back to my hotel. Spent the rest of the week avoiding those things.
My coworker literally bought one of those instant glass smasher things and keeps it in her purse now. She takes uber often and they deploy the waymos more frequently in her area. These cars are dangerously not road ready yet.
Imagine trying to get out of the car.
*Waymo: I’m sorry I can’t let you do that…*
This is a tram not a train… but sure.
I feel for the Waymo QA testers. Imagine all the scenarios you have to account for
> “This is exactly one of those edge cases, what we call them. Something unexpected where the machine drove like a machine rather than a person,” Maynard said.
No one could have possibly seen this coming. No one. Well except for the train.
Well, I won’t be using one of those, basically ever.
I hope there is a fat fine. If a Lyft driver stopped on rail tracks with a passenger in the car they would probably go to jail. I dont see why a self driving car should be given special treatment.
Assassination techniques from the future, available now!
Cash Cab is really upping those consequences for failure.
Can we talk about how „Andrew Maynard, an emerging and transformative technology professor at Arizona State University“ should know better than to anthropomorphize a car AI? „I actually felt sorry for it“ YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER. stop being part of the problem! AI doesn’t have feelings!
This is the dilemma with self-driving car companies, this makes the news for them meanwhile it happens every other day with regular drivers and it doesn’t with them.
The self-driving algorithm wanted to get TRAINed.
Ever since they killed that bodega cat, I’ve hated these cars.
> “I actually felt a little sorry for the car. It obviously made a bad decision and got itself in a difficult place,” said Andrew Maynard
How the fuck do you empathize with a damn car?
