Vastly overstating its capabilities? SF is ~crawling~ with them 24/7 and I've yet to meet someone who's had a bad experience in one of them. They operate more than well enough to replace rideshare drivers, and they have been.
How stupid of Google. Instead of getting their self driving car technology to work in a blizzard first, and then working on getting it working in a city, they choose to get it working in a city first, before getting it to work in inclement weather.
What idiots!
I hope you are sarcastic! Because it is quite expected that they would test where it is easy first. The stupid ones are those who parrot the incorrect assumption that self-driving cars are comparable to humans at general driving where statistics on general driving includes lots of driving in suboptimal condition.
