from The How of Business - How to start, run, grow and exit a small business. · host Henry Lopez

A Waymo driverless vehicle ride sparks a discussion about AI, innovation, technology adoption, and why small business owners can't afford to wait for perfection before embracing emerging technologies like AI. Show Notes Page: https://www.thehowofbusiness.com/612-waymo-and-innovation/ Henry Lopez and returning guest host David Begin recently experienced something neither of them will soon forget - their first ride in a fully driverless Waymo vehicle in downtown Miami. What starts as a fascinating technology experience quickly turns into a broader discussion about artificial intelligence, disruption, innovation, and what every small business owner should learn from emerging technologies. They explore why driverless vehicles are advancing faster than many people realize, why new technologies are often judged against impossible standards of perfection, and why businesses that wait until technology is "perfect" risk being left behind. From autonomous vehicles to AI tools, Henry and David discuss how business owners can develop the mindset needed to stay competitive in an era of rapid technological change.
