A Robotaxi Experiment

The self-driving car companies Cruise and Waymo got the green light to expand their robotaxi fleets in the city earlier this month. I spoke with Caroline Mimbs Nyce, an Atlantic writer covering technology, about her trip to San Francisco to give the robotaxis a try. But first, here are three new stories from The Atlantic:A Guinea-Pig CityLora Kelley: Tell me more about your experience riding in self-driving cars. You can very easily envision a future in which self-driving cars provide real benefit to our roads. Lora: You rode in a Cruise car called Charcuterie, and spotted another on the road called Winter.
