Anyone can share a Waymo invitation code? I experienced a self-driving car for the first time 8 years ago, together with Genny and thanks to Emilio Frazzoli with nuTonomy (now Aptiv) Now that level 5 is getting closer and closer, it's time for Genny to comment on the progress Waymo #SDV #LEVEL5

Experienced my first #driverlesscars experience while at #ifa2024 in #phoenix AZ. Curious to hear your thoughts…. Have you done this before? Would you have trust in technology like this? (Yes, I put my life in danger for your viewing pleasure 😳). What other cities have these vehicles? They were EVERYWHERE in Phoenix! Does this completely freak you out? Please provide your comments below as I would love to hear your thoughts! Waymo, Jaguar Cars, City of Phoenix #technologyinnovation #driverless #driverlesscars #transportation

🚗Have you ever ridden in a self-driving car? 🤖I took my first ride in a Waymo recently and was so impressed! The ride was smooth, efficient, and you got to pick your own music. 🎵 Is this the future of transportation? 🌟 🚀 I’m curious to hear your thoughts on self-driving cars! 🌐 👇 #Waymo #SelfDrivingCars #FutureOfTransportation 🚀👨💼

A proposito di futuro, il taxi a guida autonoma: Phoenix, San Francisco e in altre città degli Stati Uniti si può già utilizzare   " Waymo | formerly known as the Google self-driving car project   Keeping an eye on everything, all at once: The Waymo Driver's perception system takes complex data gathered from its advanced suite of car sensors, and deciphers what's around it through technology like machine learning - from pedestrians to cyclists, vehicles to construction, and more. The Waymo Driver also responds to signs and signals, like traffic light colors and temporary stop signs. "   ci fideremo? Enjoy your ride! 😀 https://lnkd.in/d7sGrUVS #SelfDrivingCars #AutonomousVehicles #Waymo #Innovation #FutureOfTransportation #AI

I have been spending a fair bit of time in San Francisco the past three years and saw with interest the deployment of Waymo and Cruise (now extinct) self driving cars about town. I finally signed up for Waymo and when I was off the waiting list took a few drives around town. I was blown away with how great the experience and technology is. In this era, seldom do we experience technology developments that greatly exceed our expectations. I've driven the Tesla quite a bit and felt the Auto Pilot mode was just enhanced lane assist, very convenient on the highway but with serious limitations in the city so I was very curious how Waymo was so different. The driving experience was very much like an experienced, but safe, human driver; pulling into open spaces to park, accelerating to beat a yellow light, slamming on the brakes when someone ran out infront of a red light, etc.. Waymo is one of a few major advancements I've experienced that illustrate how dramatically transportation will change in the next 20 years. The others have been drone technology (it does not take much imagination to see how this will replace helicopters, etc for short range transportation), Foreflight for general aviation complete changes how I fly vs the 80's and 90's and again it does not take much imagination to see how this will evolve into more automated general aviation flying. All these technologies will make transportation much more reliable and safer

I just love Waymo - I love their bold, can-do, innovative self driving cars. I love the fact they are ahead of their competitors and I love the fact oneday, I might be able to have one. This will: 🙌🏽 Save me time 🤩 Allow me to work on long journeys - or, even shorter ones 🧠 Have a brain break 👩🏼💻 Edit client films on the way back from an event - imagine having it done by the time they get in? My dream! 🧑🏽🦯 They also excite me, because they open up accessibility options for people who have sight loss etc. 🙊 I also love that they are JUST so interesting. 🧐 Travelling around in the Waymo was so inspiring, it made me think about how I’m helping clients constantly get ahead, I don’t have ‘fog’ being in the weeds. Having a fresh perspective and understanding what is possible, is the biggest opportunity in business, then, having someone action it all. 🙌🏽 I love being inspired! #waymo #selfdrivingcars #impact #innovation

Waymo is now running 100 000 paid trips on 700 vehicles, i.e. ~20 trips per vehicle and day. A traditional taxi in Stockholm has between 10-20 trips per day. Currently, the operational cost is still (much) higher than fleet revenue but the potential is huge. With new purpose built vehicle from Zeekr they can (hopefully) decrease their cost per km and increase ridesharing/cabin factor/utilization rate that will give more revenue per available vehicle hour. Imagine this as a shared service with serial produced, purpose-built vehicles—the business case for both private actors and public transport would then look quite impressive...
