If I steal your luggage, do you expect to be paid to get it or that I return to you?

Waymo should have white-gloved this and sent Larry Page himself to deliver the luggage. This is horrible PR. Airlines will send you their luggage if misplaced. One day Waymo will drive-off with your toddler and ask you to file for adoption if you want them back.

Agreed - they dont even need to send an employee to do it, they can just send a driverless waymo with the luggage surely!

That's because airlines often have their own cargo/courier service which they can easily use for delivery; and everyone knows that even those lose packages at a nonzero rate.

Your failed attempt at outrage sensationalism didn't help your argument.

> airlines often have their own cargo/courier service which they can easily use for delivery

That is indeed convenient. But not quite as convenient as having your own self-driving cars you can use for delivery.

Love that. Larry where's my stuff?
