☆ It's easy to bash tech, but I've started taking robotaxis — and they're awesome

Unlike other hyped-up tech, self-driving taxis look like they could be the real thing. Which is exactly how I felt after my last trip to San Francisco, when I took several rides in Waymo's robotaxis. AdvertisementWe've heard about self-driving taxis forever, but they're just starting to become a reality. AdvertisementWaymo self-driving taxis are kitted out with cameras and other sensors, like this Jaguar model crossing an intersection in San Francisco.

☆ I took my first self-driving car ride with my teenage son and it felt comfortably dull

My son Marlon has been obsessed with self-driving cars this year, as we've seen more and more Waymos and competing GM Cruise vehicles tootling around San Francisco without safety drivers. Last month, Waymo and Cruise won approval to operate driverless cars in San Francisco at any time of day. So with self-driving cars a common feature of our local landscape, we were excited to give one a try. The car pulled up with my initials, MR, on the display below the rotating lidar sensor on the roof. I was a skeptic about the promise of self-driving cars.
