    It is important to note that in China, developmental delays are treated with ridicule for the affected and as a source of shame for the families. I'm not passing judgment on the pa…

    Each human is different so we treat them as separate entities. Machines, by design are cookie-cutter copies. If one Waymo did something horribly stupid, then all Waymos would have …
