Ex-Waymo CEO Krafcik on autonomy; Ford eyes-off driving

Former Waymo CEO John Krafcik (https://www.autonews.com/technology/an-ces-2026-john-krafcik-says-robotaxis-will-not-replace-cars/) says autonomous technology will enhance personal car ownership rather than replace it. Ford announces plans to launch eyes-off, hands-free driver assistance (https://www.autonews.com/ford/an-ces-2026-ford-doug-field-panel-0107/) in 2028 on its Universal EV Platform — starting with a $30,000 midsize pickup.
