The only one I really heard over the past decades say that they would be everywhere in 10 to 15 years was the self promoting Elon Musk. And we will see what happens. But I really do believe we are at a place now where artificial intelligence combined with robotics
will change the world as we know it More significantly then we can now even imagine. What this will do to people who are blind and low vision, life, quality, and access and education and jobs we can only speculate? <br id="lineBreakAtBeginningOfSignature">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Good day, all! I just received this article from the Waymo website from our good friend, Hugh Carey at CSDB. The article features the President of the National Federation of
the Blind, Mark Riccobono, and one of our department executive directors, brother Anil Lewis. Read it here. Maybe we should lobby officials across the Front Range to bring Waymo. That would be the end of our dog denials.
