From the comments:
“So he wants his cars to have full autonomy but not women”
The lengths he goes to to reinvent public transit but significantly worse just so nobody ever has to see a stranger are truly astounding
Anything and everything but standard mass transit. His hatred of it is disturbingly focused.
You will be atomized and lonely and you will enjoy it! Anything more is communism!
Individualized mass transit
That’s not how that works!
gonna be so fun messing with these things
imagine going out of turn at a stop sign and watching it lurch around trying to avoid you
And no controls, not even for emergencies because of sheer techbro hubris.
There’s no smart reason for that. It’s just techbro flexing and arrogance.
$1 a mile v ‘30c’ a mile but A FUCKING BUS CAN CARRY LIKE 50 PASSENGERS MAKING IT AS LOW AS 2C PER PASSENGER PER MILE YOU SHITSTAIN
we already solved this problem, its called a fucking TRAM
New general tram megathread when?!
and the stemlords chearing in the audience lile theyre at a live recording of bazinga theory
He said the cost probably over time. So in other words it’s more expensive than a bus but probably over time it might get cheaper.
I was being way too favourable to him in my comment definitely by taking his figures for it, for sure he used inflated city estimates and depressed internal costs, not to mention the cost per passenger is still lower with mass transit even at low usage rates. The audience plant immediately asking if they can buy the vehicle before the rest can think 2 seconds about the useless stat he just spat out was timely too
I stopped watching after he used that word salad
I admire your restraint o7
All that money and he didn’t even come up with the most obvious solution.

Just imagine the cringe stale bazinga jokes that Robert Picardo’s voice would tell to passengers.
Holy shit that was Robert Picardo!
Make it describe the plots of the Doctor’s holonovels in exhaustive detail to the passengers.
The main point of concern with this is obviously Tesla’s subpar hardware and software for the job… but also why make it two seats? Most real taxis have 4-6 passenger seats
but also why make it two seats? Most real taxis have 4-6 passenger seats
Because King Bazinga decided that would be so and no one that wants to keep their job dares to correct him or make suggestions to improve his bazinga genius ideas.
Also, he claims to care about children and families, but he really doesn’t give a fuck about the practicality of having children (and a spouse that actually sticks around and doesn’t hate you) while fretting with a two seat bazingamobile.
Fortunately. I don’t want any children to get caught in one of those lithium bombs.
I’ve seen videos of people walking up and vandalizing those self-driving taxis while a passenger is still inside them lol
What a fine regulation-dodging liability…
Babe wake up, new pod model to revolutionize public transit just dropped
I don’t trust a computer to make snap judgement properly in winter weather or other non-standard road conditions.
Bazingas have been saying devout mantras like “this is safer than the human!” for years now already, too.
Working in delivery, they’re gonna have a blast when trying to automate the delivery side of postal work. Good fucking luck getting people to comply with box mounting requirements to the letter around here
