Waymo's autonomous vehicles faced significant disruptions during a massive power outage that affected approximately 130,000 customers in San Francisco. The blackout caused traffic signals to fail and left many Waymo robotaxis stalled at intersections, creating chaos on the city's streets as reported by multiple sources, including The Guardian and Engadget.
Waymo temporarily suspended its robotaxi service due to this incident but resumed operations shortly after the power was restored. Meanwhile, in other news, Google's AI, Gemini, is set to debut in Samsung's new Family Hub refrigerator, reflecting ongoing developments in Google's integration of artificial intelligence into everyday appliances, as noted by Ars Technica.
