I wonder how much money they make per trip. If they were to simply stop R&D, would they be profitable on a per trip basis? (Are they covering wear and tear on the vehicles, server costs for the app, etc.)

I&#x27;ve been using it and I really like it. The cars are always clean and comfortable, you can choose the music, and you don&#x27;t need to talk to anyone. A couple bucks more than Lyft&#x2F;Uber though, and there was one time it got stuck negotiating a two way one lane road when another car was coming, but people have trouble with that situation too.<p>The first time you take a ride in one is really amazing, it really makes you think &quot;I&#x27;m living in the future.&quot; I recommend anyone visiting SF take one.

In June a related Forbes article projected 50M in revenue in 2024. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;alanohnsman&#x2F;2024&#x2F;06&#x2F;17&#x2F;a-robotaxi-business-is-a-dream-for-elon-muskbut-already-a-reality-for-waymo&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;alanohnsman&#x2F;2024&#x2F;06&#x2F;17&#x2F;a-robota...</a> <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;bradtempleton&#x2F;2024&#x2F;08&#x2F;20&#x2F;waymos-6th-generation-robotaxi-is-cheaper--how-cheap-can-they-go&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;bradtempleton&#x2F;2024&#x2F;08&#x2F;20&#x2F;waymos...</a>

I work in map annotation for waymo for europe and a lot of work is coming lately. they pay good bonuses for overtime. I suspect this is just the beginning of the scaling process.
