Took my first ride in a public Tesla Tesla Robotaxi today in San Francisco. Called it in an alley and the driver intervened after a few minutes of waiting to make a left turn out of the alley. He took a right manually and turned self-driving on again. The robotaxi immediately turned into the same one-way alley which prompted the driver to take over again. He did a u-turn in the alley manually and eventually the robotaxi was able to make the turn into the busy street. To interventions in what was supposed to be a 6-minute ride but took 15 minutes due to traffic. Not the best first ride but that's how it goes sometimes. I'm curious what this experience will be like after Tesla launches the service, especially with the Cybercab where there's no steering wheel or driver.

Waymo partnered with Hyundai USA to build a robotaxi that comes straight out of Hyundai's factory. It should drastically lower Waymo's vehicle cost, standardize the platform, and allow them to ramp up volume quickly. No word on production volume or pricing but it will be in production by the end of the year, according to Hyundai's team.
