Cruise has robo-taxis operating in San Francisco [1].
Obviously we don't know to what extent they have remote drivers but you wouldn't be able to run such a service if every ride required them.

When I was recently in SF, one early morning I came across a Cruise vehicle on a one way street at a 30 degree angle blocking traffic (of which there was very little at the time). Another was pulling up behind it (maintenance vehicle?). Not sure what the story was with it.
