Zoox might survive because Jeff is pumping in a ton of money, comma.ai will still win self-driving cars though
These “production vehicles” probably cost more than $80k, comma.ai costs less than a grand and is available now. This system is a joke.

It’s like a glorified go cart, but without a driver. I’d get claustrophobic if I was stuck in one of those tiny things with a stranger. I can also picture a teenager vandalizing or hot boxing it. It sounds like a great idea for resorts or churches.

Looks disturbingly similar to Cruise and one other non-wamo company. Peculiar that they are all focused on the same markets -SF,LV, and Phoenix. I appreciate the safety lip service, but I want to know more about what assures safety of pedestrians and what these will do to traffic. Also want to know about regulation -these are the same cities that stabbed their taxi drivers in the back.
