San Francisco is back to basics: The city has has now turned back to the good old handwritten notes

Like a fictional trope where the old world charm combines the sci-fi magic, recruiters and those looking for a date have been using robotaxis to find candidates and partners.
As per a report by the Washington Post, people in San Francisco have been leaving handwritten notes on self-driving robotaxis.

Hiring software engineers

Alessandra Angelini, the CEO of Influur decided to skip LinkedIn and instead slid a handwritten job ad into the console of a self-driving Waymo taxi. The note said she was hiring senior software engineers to join an AI/music project with some contact details.

A passenger that later boarded the taxi shared a picture of the note on X where it garnered 310K views and 4.4K likes. As per Angelini, she has received over 60 resumes from Bay Area engineers. “It was kind of an old-school ad that worked pretty good,” she said.

Looking for dates

For single women...

Not only for hiring, the self-driven Waymo taxis are also being used to scour dates. Some days later, a single 26-year-old tech worker put a handwritten note describing his work, age, height with a number in the end. This as well was shared on X in a post that has 720.4K views with 6.3K likes.

Netizens react

Well, as is with every interesting event, netizens always have something to say. And with Waymo playing the wingman in the personal and professional world, this is what they had to say. “Waymo is the new hinge” wrote a user. “this is the best recruiting I’ve ever seen” wrote another.

Well, who ever hates playing the humble middleman? Definitely not a taxi! Waymo, which says its cars are cleaned every time they are back to the depot, doesn’t mind the in-car ads. “We’re proud to be driving mobility both personally and professionally” said the company to The Washington Post.
