Never tried a robotaxi, but according to the writer for Axios, it may be the next best thing after non-stick cookware and sliced bread.
After a day spent criss-crossing Los Angeles in a series of Waymo robotaxis, I can confidently say: I’m a convert.
Why it matters: Self-driving cars, which once seemed like science fiction, are now real, and hailing a driverless taxi is an increasing option in more cities via popular apps like Uber and Lyft or directly with Waymo.
The big picture: Alphabet-owned Waymo is the clear leader in autonomous vehicle technology.
Thought bubble: I feel safer in a robotaxi that doesn’t speed or weave through traffic.
The bottom line: Overall, Waymo offered an excellent customer experience, but I wondered how it would be if the previous rider left behind a tuna fish sandwich.
