This is what Twitter is for. Rather than spreading hate or misinformation, author Nat Eliason took to his feed to spread joy via a delightfully satiric post about putting a baby in a self-driving car.
Waymo is a godsend for working parents.
Need to hand off the baby between meetings?
Put them in a Waymo and send them to your partner across town.

Honestly? Doesn’t seem like the WORST idea. But rather than elicit an angry mob of shocked parents taking the rage bait, the comments just one-upped the original post. It’s a real joy scroll. Thank you, people of Twitter. I needed a goofy distraction.
Here are the best responses.

Thanks! Is this cheaper than what I do now? I typically pay the homeless guy that lives outside my building to wait for a taxi to carry the little one to mom.

Problem here is there will be thousands that see this and think it’s legit good idea. Satire only works with smart people. There will be some sorry excuse of parent who now does this for real

If a baby cries in a waymo and nobody is there to hear it, was it ever really sad?
