When Waymo robotaxis first rolled out onto San Francisco streets in 2021, people were skeptical. But less than five years later, Waymos are popular – a new poll finds local support at 67% –  though still polarizing. A San Francisco Supervisor is advocating to allow counties to decide whether they are allowed on their roads. As Waymo extends their service this week to San Jose and Bay Area highways, we’ll talk with those for and against Waymo expansion. And we’ll look at the future of autonomous vehicles as new competition looks to enter the market. Guests: Jackie Fielder, District 9 supervisor, San Francisco William (Billy) Riggs, professor, University of San Francisco School of Management Rya Jetha, tech culture reporter, SF Standard Learn more about your ad choices.
