HOW SAN FRANCISCO LEARNED TO LOVE SELF-DRIVING CARS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Self-driving cars have won over San Francisco after a rocky start a year and a half ago. The company is currently serving over 100,000 paid rides a week across Los Angeles, Phoenix, and San Francisco. It opened its service to everyone in San Francisco this past summer. Waymo rides generally cost slightly more than Uber or Lyft, but users don't have to tip drivers, making the three apps' prices competitive. The company is already retaining riders at a higher rate than competitors while operating on a much smaller scale.
