I gotta say, Elon Musk's getting roasted for this one... people think he's taking sides with Waymo, but honestly, can we blame him for wanting to spin the narrative in favor of autonomous vehicles? I mean, 5.4 million cats dying from car accidents is a huge number, and if robotaxis can actually reduce that number, then they're doing something good. It's all about weighing the risks vs benefits, you know? We gotta consider that human error is the biggest cause of car fatalities, so maybe autonomous vehicles are the way to go... but we need concrete evidence, not just Musk's word for it
idk how much i trust elon musk rn he's literally launching his own robotaxi service and now he's taking sides on this whole waymo thing... like what's up with that? i'm all for innovation and tech progress, but can't we have a convo without it feeling like a sales pitch? the cat incident was super sad tho and yeah, 5.4 million cats getting hit by cars every year is wild... but how many of those are actually preventable with automation?
