Grab drivers going to be finished: GRAB to start autonomous taxi service

[perfectlight]

with singapore drivers. can the AI be safe?

 

[Zinna]

Buying grab shares nao!

 

[huihong]

Current AI vehicles are more for fixed routes or predetermined routes so as to cause less confusion for the AI processor. For it to become a P2P taxi service is still some time away.

Hence current usage is best for say shuttle bus services.

I saw many Waymo cars when I was in LA,

but granted LA road lanes wider.

if is cheaper, i dun mind.

Wait till one day you need to drive how?

Why no start on buses .
Busses are fixed road
If no space , jus make bus lane 24/7 ,
Switch on road camera, fine user 1k if caught using .

We are going car lite also righr

Probably because SMRT and LTA no budget nor plans for A.I driving yet .

ERP already took all the budget I suppose

safe anot?

wait got simi solar flare car go heywire how?

Implement grab food first. Don't want to see rude and temperamental people on the road.

 

[klim668]

Good, it's about time.

dun think so ba. grab ceo only look at profits. highest commission platform on phv.
grab buyed uber, then wanted to buy transcab.
then rumor grab going to buy gojek.

all these $$$.

Time to sell grab shares.

Any sinkie companies that want to venture into autonomous vehicles, confirm lose money de.

Because so long as the law doesn't change, where car hit siaolang cyclists or pedestrians who don't observe right of way, but driver still kena charged.

If these things happen to autonomous vehicles, who will the court hold to be responsible?

They probably hire remote drivers.

Full automated driving is still very challenging in complicated city terrain especially sinkeeland, so many boomers jaywalk and construction sites on road .

I love to see these lazy drivers rice bowl kena destroyed. Always drive so slow to pick up or cancel trips. I wanna see them no income and have to go back to their companies and beg their old bosses for a job + eat the humble pie

 

[English Teacher]

weird english in the thread title

 

[Cereal_Time]

Eh don't have any bad exp with cabbies but can auto car avoid incoming collusion like human instincts?

 

[jimmy]

if grab doesn't own it's own technology or fleet, why would people pay grab's markup and not just go to the coy serving robotaxis?

Correct.

Google operate their own subsidiary for this.

Impossible to insure at this point.

 

[kensk76]

BS, the infrastructure has to make major overhaul even to make it safer. Not in my lifetime.

 

[Hello_Kitty]

will this result in cheaper fee???
