Waymo's self-driving cars rely on prebuilt maps to navigate and expect their surroundings, limiting them currently to the streets of Mountain View. The presentation will map the API landscape and discuss how doing the same things repeatedly without change or improvement is unsustainable. The presenter is Mike Amundsen from API Academy with the Twitter handle @mamund.

4. "At the heart of the technology is a Google-
made topographical map that gives the car a
sense of what it should expect. The cars
depend on this prebuilt map, which is why their
urban excursions are limited to Mountain View
for now…"

again and expecting different results."
