    So the article repeats, several times, “waymo relies on remote operators”. I don’t think the author knows what “self-driving” means.

      I’m making a prediction right now that real self driving will eventually rely on people from impoverished countries remotely operating the cars of wealthier countries. Sort of like how AI training data is combed through.

      And he forgets to mention the precise mapping required too. He also left out the terrible experiences Waymo has had with revoked permits, cars disabled by traffic cones, and multiple traffic stopping glitches where intersections were blocked for hours.

      “self-driving”

      Someone else, forreal - driving

      A couple years ago, we used to joke around the shop “Of course they used AI - An intern.”
