WAYMO

🏎️ Waymo's Driverless Cars Lead the Way in Performance!

A new analysis of Waymo’s crash data reveals that driverless cars are much safer than human-driven ones, showing fewer injury-causing crashes and airbag deployments per mile.

Key Highlights

• Waymo vehicles have traveled over 22 million miles with only 20 injury-causing crashes reported.

• This crash rate is less than one-third of what is expected for human drivers under similar conditions.

• Of 23 severe crashes, 16 involved human drivers rear-ending Waymo vehicles.

• Waymo estimates its vehicles are one-sixth as likely as human drivers to experience crashes that trigger airbag deployment.

Why it's a big deal: As Waymo expands its robotaxi service to 100,000 rides per week, these safety statistics become crucial. The data indicates that self-driving cars are now safe and could greatly reduce road accidents and injuries.

🍓 OpenAI’s Strawberry Set: Early Launch Revealed!

Breaking News: A new report from The Information says that OpenAI plans to launch 'Strawberry,' its reasoning-focused AI model, in ChatGPT within the next two weeks — sooner than expected, as it was originally set for the fall.

Here's what's happening:

• Early testers say Strawberry takes about 10-20 seconds to "think" before replying, unlike most AI models that answer right away.

• The first version will only work with text, not images, so it’s not as versatile as some other recent AI models.

• Strawberry is expected to handle complex questions better without needing special prompt techniques, like “chain-of-thought-prompting.”

• However, testers mentioned that while Strawberry's answers are a bit better than GPT-4o, the extra wait time might not be worth it.

Why it matters: If the reports are true, Strawberry might shine in both objective tasks (like math and coding) and subjective ones (like product marketing), potentially introducing new practical AI applications. However, with early testers saying it’s only “slightly better,” we’ll have to see if it lives up to the hype.
