I'm a bit skeptical of the "Waymo should release the footage!!!" enthusiasts. If your child was involved in an accident, would you want the footage just automatically released to the broad public?
Hmm that's a good question. Obviously Waymo would blur the faces and there wouldn't be any other personally identifying information, but I do think it's hard to preach transparency, release videos of Waymos avoiding situations like this, and then not release the video.
And this does come on the heels of their SF outage in which I still think they have not been transparent enough. They have yet to really explain what happened as I talked about with Brad Templeton recently on the podcast.
