Autonomously navigating the real world: lessons from the PG&E outage

At Waymo, our mission is to be the world’s most trusted driver. We know trust is built through consistent behavior over time—earned through every mile we drive and every interaction we have with the community. This past Saturday, as a widespread PG&E outage cut power to nearly one-third of San Francisco, our service was put to the test. With power now restored, we want to share an account of our operations during the outage and how we are evolving to better serve the city.

With keen interest I studied the following blogpost by @stefano

You have to read the blog post carefully, if necessary, read it twice, because there are things said between the words and the lines that should resonate with you

One major lesson is extremely important know when to cut and leave; never ever deviate from your course afterwards

When politics, corruption and deviousness are involved, you have to make absolutely certain that both your integrity and your health remain at your primary interest

A lot has been learned by me from this article

Thank you for sharing it with us Stefano
