If you want to grab onto something to be a doomer about robotaxis, the obvious hook is that Waymo's unit economics are unknown but likely to be negative. "Robotaxis" are much easier to build than "profitable robotaxis", and it's the latter that might be surprisingly far away

staking my flag here: I reckon "pfft, they can handle phoenix and san francisco and los angeles but robotaxis will never be able to cope with London Streets" is going to be quietly retired as a take by this time next year
Whereas this is my view of real drivers. I don’t want them in my city.
Less likely to drive directly at me honking their horn for not crossing the road fast enough

looks like it's downstream of Bing's error, which makes sense because DDG sources from it
huh. would love to know what's happening on Duck Duck Go's image search for this very specific error to be so firmly embedded
With the vast array of cures, treatments, power dampeners and the like now available across the marvel universe it is frankly irresponsible that the x-men insist on what is essentially a second amendment right to own nuclear weapons provided you’re born with them
