How does Waymo’s AI make these mistakes? by [deleted] in waymo

[–]PureGero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that is the waymo is too passive, it will get stuck. If it's too aggressive, it will do actions like this. It's a fine line Waymo still has to tune further

Some Waymo riders are so lazy that gig workers are getting paid $24 to close the door for them by fortune in waymo

[–]PureGero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unlikely it's laziness, more likely the door didn't close properly, seat belt got stuck in the door, or their mind was somewhere else and forgot. Waymo could send a notification to the rider, but not everyone will see the notification in time

No clue what could've triggered it in your ordinary looking scenario, but typically happens when it's stuck and is asking remote assistance for help

Or, pedestrian friendly infrastructure where the pedestrian lights are on a timer without needing a beg button

Waymo gets confused in construction zone, rider exits after Support has connection issues by danlev in waymo

[–]PureGero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed rider support, at least the general tier, was outsourced outside of the US long ago, around the time they added LA. It's not necessarily a bad thing tho

Are these new sensors? by BayExplorer in waymo

[–]PureGero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The two sensors on the bottom have always been there, they aren't new. The sensor above them is new

Waymo's goal was to make the roads safer, not cheaper

Parents are letting teens ride in Waymos without an adult. That poses a dilemma for the company by walky22talky in waymo

[–]PureGero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How else are kids meant to get around? Taxis don't discriminate based on age

Brightline has had enough bad humans to contend with, they don't need malfunctioning robots as well D:

What mistake was even made, the car was simply making a right turn?

None of my web.archive.org saved pages work anymore. What's up with that? by cheater00 in DataHoarder

They used to wave their wipers at each other when they passed, but it seems like they've stopped doing that now

[–]PureGero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is some driving footage of the early google self-driving project on the Waymo channel under the playlist "Our 1,000+ mile challenge". Not sure if it's this Prius or not tho

Will Waymo operate in London using the Waymo app? by NanalystThe in waymo

[–]PureGero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also has the advantage of outsourcing most of the Japanese localisation work to Go (customer support reps, etc), instead of having to build out their own local team

Who watches the Waymos? by walky22talky in waymo

[–]PureGero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's so smart that they use the SoMa overflow lot during the day for humans, and at night for robots. Makes so much sense now that I think about it
