Robotaxis Are Finally Real, Just Not For You Yet

Original version ·

We’ve been promised the autonomous dream for ages, and it’s finally rolling down the street—if you happen to live in the right zip code.

For years, Silicon Valley tech bros have been swearing that self-driving cars were just a software update away. Turns out, the future is indeed here, but it’s currently stuck in a very exclusive club of cities where the infrastructure actually plays nice.

You can finally hail a car with zero humans inside, but don't count on catching a ride if you're outside the designated zones. The technology works, but the rollout is basically a game of geographical lottery.

It’s a bold new world, unless you live in the suburbs, where the robot still has no idea how to handle a pothole or a confused suburban dad.
