Wow I never knew cars could burn so completely. I guess I've only ever seen ones where the skeleton is still left standing.

Interesting pictures though, thank you for sharing.

Waymo uses Jaguar I-Pace CUVs that are built primarily out of aluminum and powered by lithium ion batteries. Aluminum melts at about 660°C, and Li-ion battery fires can easily reach 1000°C

Doesn't look like AI, the bike and rider seem too accurate for AI

AI is pretty shit at accurately recreating bikes. Harder than fingers.
