Waymo launch service in AZ
Finally. Bay Area next I hope https://finance.yahoo.com/news/waymo-unveils-self-driving-taxi-132430121.html Alphabet's Waymo on Wednesday launched a significant development in its costly, decade-long quest for autonomous transportation: self-driving taxis that actually generate fares. With little fanfare, the company has begun charging passengers to use its driverless vehicles in a roughly 100-mile (160 km) zone in four Phoenix suburbs - Chandler, Tempe, Mesa and Gilbert - where it has been testing its technology since 2016. Producing revenue is a strategic milestone, putting Waymo ahead of U.S. rivals, primarily General Motors Co's Cruise Automation and Uber Technologies, which have yet to launch their own paid self-driving services. #uber #lyft
1. Why on Earth did you tag Lyft. It was never even mentioned. 2. It's going to be a really, really long time before it gets too California. The red tape and legal regulations and hoops to jump through are seemingly nearly infinite.
Lyft is providing same service?
Very cool, I'm excited to see where this is headed
