Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

Period.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

So I just want to name that that was very poor taste to utilize folks who are already vulnerable to fight on behalf of those who have so much more than any of us here.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

And I'll start with the CEO, maybe.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

How can we utilize Waymo instead of replacing our app drivers to improve the quality of experiences for those folks who have complained?

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

No, that's not the question.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

The question is, right, because you talk about your technology and your ability.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

But you're the CEO of a technology company.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

No, I'm not.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

So, yeah.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

I mean, I was like, okay.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

You're on the other side of this, but you're not really on the other side because you're sitting on the Waymo panel anyway.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

But I think for the advocates that have been here and that have provided public testimony, especially maybe from on those in favor of this, I think it's important to say that everybody has their own individual agency and they were here on their own accord.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

Yeah, I saw that too.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

And it's my job, it's all of our jobs as folks that are trying to be thoughtful and take a comprehensive approach to listen to every side.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

And that will require a lot of compromise and a lot of consensus.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

But I think that that's good policymaking.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

I love the magic wand question because it always talks about like the possibility of getting to a place where everybody's happy, which I don't think is ever going to happen.

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

But I would be happy to get more data of if we could, if I had a magic wand, how many folks would this employ?

Freakonomics Radio
In a Driverless World, Who Loses and Who Wins?

not just these major corporations, but challenge labor unions and to challenge advocacy organizations and to try not to get motivated by our passions.
