60 Cybercabs spotted at Giga Texas in largest grouping yet
By

60 Cybercabs spotted at Giga Texas today 🤖 Joe Tegtmeyer 🚀 🤠🛸😎 (@JoeTegtmeyer) Happy 8 April (Wednesday) at Giga Texas, especially for those wanting an update on Cybercabs … I saw about 60 of them in two groups in the outbound lot today … the largest grouping yet! Also, looks like at least some of these have white seats and most still have clearly visible steering wheels … I will let you conclude what you wish from that, but these still do not look like the final “production” versions, so perhaps they are testing out some of the new features while testing some of the @robotaxi areas around the country. — https://nitter.net/JoeTegtmeyer/status/2041903913771716853#m

New approach: share ownership of OT-defined problems.
When OT teams become co-authors of solutions instead of defendants against them, the veto disappears.
