A video appears to show the future of transportation: a Waymo robotaxi smashing into a Serve Robotics delivery robot.

    As it turns out, the impact wasn’t too severe. The Waymo cab, to its credit, hit the brakes immediately and avoided knocking the poor little thing over. And moments later, while the robotaxi is still in a daze, the Serve robot drives away like nothing happened.

    Smash seems to be overselling it.

        For revenge or for reconciliation?

      It appears the video may have been sped up in the part just before the impact. I would like to see the unedited clip, I bet it was way less severe than it looked.

      Sounds like a good time to use the word “bump”

      The word “slam” has been reserved for headlines of someone giving minor criticism, can’t use that unfortunately.
