Well, great to have you here, Takidra.
So Takidra, what's next?
I mean, every time I look at the news, I see a new city, I see new models.
What's new?
What's the rate limiting factor?
Is it some notion of safety or is it regulation?
What is it?
It's worth triply underlining what you just said.
Over 10 times safer, at least based on the current data.
We were talking earlier, y'all have already driven the equivalent of 300 lifetimes.
And Waymo has not caused a death.
That's right.
Knock on wood.
That's right.
And there's an argument.
There's 40,000 people roughly in America every year who die of a car accident.
I think in the world it's on the order of a million every year.
So in theory, if this became everywhere, you could be saving 900,000 lives globally.
You could be saving 35,000, 36,000 lives just in the United States.
Why isn't there more?
