Robotaxis are in my opinion still the lesser evil, reducing the need for parking space.
In most scenarios autonomous cars are already better drivers than most humans are ever going to be. Only in edge cases can they make the wrong choice. Over the next few years software will get better (and some companies will fall out of the race).

In the event of a collision, the car is going to drag someone around? That’s a pretty risky edge case to shrug off.
Also notable is that they are hiring for a Chief Safety Officer now.
