Waymo’s robotaxis now being dispatched in 10 major U.S. markets with expansion in Texas and Florida
3mon 23d ago in futurology@futurology.today from apnews.comThe expansion into four more markets marks a significant step toward Waymo’s goal to surpass 1 million weekly paid trips by the end of 2026.
A back of an envelope calculation ( 3 trips per hour, 120 per week, 6k PA) - suggests this is replacing about 8,500 human drivers; still a modest amount.

OpenAI is talking to iPhone designer Jony Ives about creating a new type of device, less reliant on screens, to interact with AI.
2y 8mon ago in futurology@futurology.today from www.theverge.comIt seems obvious now AI is as advanced as it is that voice interaction should feature more strongly. Scanning and reading are quicker for long-form content, but where the result I want is a short answer, it would be as quick for AI to tell me.
The other obvious idea is that it would be great if screens could exist via Augmented Reality. There are ways of doing this now, but they are still cumbersome. Maybe that is where the breakthrough is needed.
