Almost here. Elon said Full Self Driving would mean full self driving within a year! That means we are less than 12 months away from not needing to drove ourselves anymore.

I was talking about Waymo. It's real and it's spreading everywhere.

Give it another 10-20 years and your job will probably face the same fate.

15 years would be perfect to still reach retirement age. After that, good luck to whoever's left in the profession.

waymo was that company that still heavily relies on manual remote operator intervention, right?

Regardless, the car mostly driving itself while remote operators handle particularly tricky situations is a feat which will allow driver-not-in-vehicle taxis to take over. My understanding (which admittedly could be the victim of successful PR) is that the vast majority of the driving and even a majority of the trips are fully automated.

"particularly tricky situations" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here to describe situations every owner of a driving license is expected to handle routinely.

driver-not-in-vehicle is an interesting approach, but calling it "self-driving" is doing the mechanical turk without the reveal. Someone less charitable might assume intentional misrepresentation for the sake of winning an internet argument.
