A: Hey there! Have you heard about the latest news?
B: No, what's up?
A: Waymo and DoorDash are teaming up for a cool project! They're going to test self-driving cars for deliveries in Phoenix.
B: Wow, really? That sounds exciting! So it won't be just robotaxis anymore?
A: Exactly! They've been experimenting with delivery too, and this partnership is a big step. They want to see if customers prefer getting their groceries from an autonomous car instead of human delivery.
B: That's interesting! How will it work exactly?
A: Well, you order food or groceries through the DoorDash app like usual. Then, a driverless Waymo vehicle, like a Jaguar I-Pace, will pick up your order and bring it to you. When it arrives, you'll use the DoorDash app to get your stuff from the trunk.
B: Hmmm... that could be convenient, but also a bit unusual since I have to go out to get the items myself.
A: Yeah, that's the big test they're trying to figure out. If the convenience of an autonomous vehicle delivery outweighs human hand-off at your doorstep.
B: I can see both sides, but it's worth a try! I wonder what other cities they might expand to if this works well in Phoenix.
