Doesn’t Google own Waymo? I feel like they would have connected the dots.

I believe every single company in that industry has connected those dots since years. I don’t understand how you all seem to believe that’s an original idea, they all have models already

This recent post form Waymo suggests they already use large general models: https://waymo.com/blog/2026/08/10ailessons/

Astra is the first chat model with really strong spatial reasoning. Gemini is nowhere close. Hard to say what google has going on internally, but if they have an astra like model I doubt they’ve had it for very long.
