    Yes actually (except more than a few years).

    Waymo is already operating a robotaxi service in 3 cities, now they just need to expand and find a way to make it not lose money.

        Until what? 100% replacement of human-driven cars? Being rolled out for areas covering 50% of the population? Where is the goal line here?

        We are already at the stage of commercial operation, with rides available to the general public - even though only in a few locations.

        Sure, it’s far from being everywhere, but why pretend that progress has stalled, when it clearly hasn’t?

          My point is that the ‘give it a few more years’ mantra gets repeated for decades
