While many use it for research, others admit to frequent chatbot-assisted cheating. • Waymo Using Gig Workers: Waymo is paying gig workers $20–$24 to manually close robotaxi doors. The driverless Jaguars cannot move if passengers leave doors ajar after exiting. • Waymo Clarifies Human Assistance: Waymo defended its use of overseas assistants to ”guide” vehicles in complex traffic, stressing that humans provide environmental context but do not remotely drive. • Tesla Suing To Use “AutoPilot and FSD”: Tesla is suing the California DMV, claiming the ban on ”Autopilot” marketing violates the First Amendment and ignores the company’s clear driver supervision warnings.
