You work at a company committing fraud with a dead end product that will never scale. You’re mad that I’m exposing your fraudulent demo tactics. Go tweak those hyper parameters one more time —- cross your fingers your model converges this decade before your funding gets pulled and your resume has a half-decade block filled with “I bought the hype, committed fraud, got caught, and failed.”

I don't know what's fueling your vitriol but this ranting would be a lot more relevant if you couldn't hail rides in our vehicles.

I think we're seeing what happens when FOMO meets "missed out". It'd just be more humorous if you weren't projecting your anger onto me.

    Where? A narrow area in which you can create ultra-HD maps that are in no way indicative of the general case?

    If you’re at Cruise, I can only grab a ride between 10 pm and 5:30 am (lol, lmao). If you’re at Waymo, your beta is still closed (though I have several invites from former colleagues) and you only serve a tiny fraction of realistic destinations in the city. Do you think this proves your point? Let me restate my position: you can’t scale to the general case. You never will. You will be stuck in Phoenix and specific part of SF forever. Your business will never be viable. Your vehicles will never be able to navigate roads without a prohibitively costly mapping effort in that region that doesn’t scale. Your valuation will continue to decline. What part of offering unsafe rides to friends and family right now changes that?
