Eric Topol highlighted Waymo's full-page ad in The Washington Post, billed around "The World's Most Experienced Driver™."
The ad's core claim: Waymo has now driven over 270 million fully autonomous miles, and says Waymo is safer than a human driver in the cities it serves — a notable public marketing push framing autonomy as superhuman safety.
