Cruise has remote human operators who intervene every 2.5 to 5 miles, according to a recent NYT article. Dunno about Waymo or Apollo. That does not sound like “roughly the same sense as AAA.”
Even Teslas still have human interventions in something like half of rides. (So, way better than Cruise but still far from good enough)
Kyle Vogt responded to the New York Times article. He claims 2.5 to 5 miles is the rate that Cruise vehicles request help from remote operators, not the rate that they actually get help. Vogt doesn’t say what the rate they actually get help is.
I’m a bit sus. If that number were so much better than the 2.5-5 miles number cited by the times, why wouldn’t he come out and say it?
