Exciting to see @Waymo finally offer its Robotaxi service in Silicon Valley. Yes, it took 15 years…but they still beat everyone else.

With the expansion, Waymo will now take passengers around Mountain View, Los Altos, Palo Alto and parts of Sunnyvale, California.

The end of 2023 brings another end for me: my time at The Washington Post. It has been an incredible 6 years of building the tech team, leading our coverage, editing award-winning journalism - and being a part of the most knowledgeable, inquisitive, creative, collaborative team.
