@Waymo @Uber Proud to be part of this amazing team! Fantastic progress!

There’s a new way to ride in ATX! 🎉 We’re now live in Austin, only on @Uber. Increase your chances of getting matched → open the Uber app when you're in Austin and toggle Autonomous vehicles in settings for Waymo ride preferences.

Thank you @davidgeorge83 for hosting me earlier this summer!

Really special to be able to bring the benefits of full autonomy to even more people in California, where many at @Waymo call home. Who’s ready to ride?

[Saswat Panigrahi @saswat101]

We get this a lot 😀. The @Waymo Driver does indeed honk when necessary! Here’s an example where a garbage truck in SF began reversing towards our vehicle. The Driver automatically honked and reversed to make way for the truck before moving on.

We published two new papers: one that compares the Waymo Driver’s crash rates to human drivers’ over 7M+ rider-only miles across Phoenix, San Francisco, and Los Angeles; and another that develops clear human crash benchmarks to enable such comparison. https://t.co/yiq7vt1lb8

Thank you @Waymo riders for taking over 700,000 trips this year with no human behind the wheel. And to our team who made it happen! Much more work to do to safely scale our tech, but excited to welcome more riders in more places in 2024.

Proud to have been a part of this incredible effort!

Expect our progress to continue increasing exponentially. https://t.co/PBXqTmtld7

Congrats, Waymo! Achieving 1 million miles without a human driver showcases the potential of AI in transforming mobility. Proud to be part of AI teams at Waymo driving this revolution. #Waymo #AutonomousDriving #AI #ML https://t.co/93kf0vsXgb

@DeepMind This has been in the works for a long time! Great to see @DeepMind make this move which will certainly push robotics research.

Exciting results from our partnership with @googlemaps! Using advanced Graph Neural Networks we were able to improve the accuracy of ETAs in major cities across the world by up to 50% https://t.co/ZOzy7AlBuX

@alienelf It's a lot of the "We tried and failed" part! The model is rolled out across 80+ regions (including the African continent). The graphic focused on metro regions with >X% gain.

So tl;dr, the traffic prediction problem is harder in some regions, so we still have work to do!
