Take a look at this. A Tesla Robotaxi in Austin pauses, seems to reconsider a right-hand turn through some bollards, and then decides: “I’m just gonna send it.”

I interpreted the original question “what value do self driving taxis add to regular taxis?” as referring to the value for society at large. I concede the potential safety improvement as a counterpoint to “solves no problem at all”, I just don’t really believe that the money savings will manifest for society at large (unless, of course, we manage to get rid of the whole “disrupt, monopolise, exploit, enshittify” mechanism).
