I agree. Not everything in life needs to be a personal interaction. I just want to get from A to B. One of the reasons I like an actually functioning mass transit system is that you just get on and get off. Subways don't rate people (yet) and that is something I think good regulation could enforce here too. The problem is we have a long history of bad regulation when it comes to mass transit so we will see.

would be nice to get that one day. In the meanwhile I guess LA is spending that budget here on Waymo for even more cars in traffic.

What makes you think that people who take Wayne rides aren't automatically rated?

[hypothesis]

Was not Uber plan to use human drivers as a stop-gap to autonomous driving? I doubt that they will remove ratings if they ever achieve that.

And Waymo is going to the same destination, just approaching from other direction.
