Waymo just announced it's ordering 62,000 Chrysler Pacifica minivans for use as robotaxis. Do you still think it's just a pipe dream?

IIRC the robotaxi service will only be offered in Arizona for the time being, which is basically the easiest place to perform at level 4. This might be a good start, but don't be fooled into thinking the improvements required to bring level 4 into markets with reasonable amounts of rain and snow are linear; if the rest of the self driving car industry is any indication, we're nearing a plateau.
