00:07launch a new autonomous vehicle collaboration in the city. The companies formed the partnership
00:13in 2023, allowing Uber to integrate Waymo's autonomous vehicles into its ride-hailing
00:18and food delivery platforms. Waymo said vehicles used in the pilot have been integrated back into
00:23its Phoenix fleet and remain available through its app. Waymo vehicles are still available on
