Apparently, it wasn't a one-time thing. Around the same time, in another Waymo robotaxi headed for the Phoenix airport, Mike Johns, founder and CEO of AI consultancy Digital Mind State, also found himself circling a parking lot, unable to stop the car or get out. The videos were posted within a couple of days of each other. Waymo has not confirmed whether the incidents happened at the same time or if there were other similar loopy incidents, but says it issued software updates to fix the issue. Johns was stuck in the Waymo going through a loop for “under seven minutes,” but he says it “felt like forever,” particularly as he feared he would miss his flight and questioned whether the car had been hacked. It was his second time in a Waymo robotaxi. A Waymo spokesperson confirmed the incident. “This event occurred in early December and has since been addressed by a regularly scheduled software update. The vehicle completed the rider's trip and they were not charged for the ride.”
