Dmitri follows 66 people, apparently his social circle uses fewer beams than his LiDAR. He posts safety videos so often we’re starting to suspect his car has better bedside manner than most politicians.

Launched fully autonomous public operations in San Francisco and expanded freeway and multi-city service (LA, Phoenix, Austin, SF↔SJ), backed by viral safety demonstration videos showing real-world interventions and rider service.

To make transportation safer and more accessible by turning cutting-edge autonomy research into dependable, everyday mobility, proving that AI can protect people on busy streets and highways.

Believes in rigorous, data-driven safety; that real-world validation matters more than speculation; in generalizability of systems across cities; and that technology should demonstrably reduce harm while unlocking new mobility opportunities.

Deep technical credibility combined with clear, evidence-backed storytelling, he can turn sensor demos and metrics into compelling proof points that build trust with riders, regulators and the public.

Can come across highly product-focused and technical, which sometimes makes his messaging feel a bit distant from everyday riders’ emotions or the local political debates that shape urban rollout.

To grow on X: lean into short explainer threads and behind‑the‑scenes human stories (riders, engineers, city partners), host periodic Spaces or AMAs about safety data, reply more often to journalists and community accounts, and keep publishing short, captioned video clips, those already drive big reach. Use simple infographics of safety metrics to turn technical wins into shareable narratives.

Fun fact: Dmitri has 23,963 followers on X, follows just 66 accounts, and has tweeted 252 times. His feed is full of high‑view safety videos and major product rollouts, including fully autonomous operations in San Francisco and freeway service expansions.

Kids chasing dogs, chasing balls on the streets of LA… once again, @Waymo AI with advanced sensing making our roads safer.

We recently began serving riders in Austin, and it’s great to see the safety benefits of the @Waymo Driver already playing out for both our riders and other road users.

Safety in action - as another car pulls into our lane in LA, the @Waymo Driver cranks the wheel 270° in 1 second to keep everyone safe. Constant 360° sensing, deep understanding and prediction, real-time decisions, and precise actuation.

1/ Some San Franciscans may have already noticed @Waymo cars with empty driver’s seats. Now it’s official: we’ve started fully autonomous operations in SF! blog.waymo.com/2022/03/taking…

Speed matters. A @Waymo vehicle was driving in a 25mph zone in LA when an oncoming car swerved into our lane while speeding up to over 70mph… 3x the speed means 9x the destructive energy. Good to see the Waymo Driver react early and safely to make room.

Over 55M miles of fully autonomous driving data shows the @Waymo Driver is making roads safer for everyone, especially for those most at risk – pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users. Strong positive impact already and growing exponentially. waymo.com/blog/2025/05/w…

Exponential scaling ongoing – @Waymo has officially doubled our fully autonomous cities in a matter of weeks, reaching 10 cities with the newest additions of San Antonio and Orlando. This is a testament to the maturity and generalizability of the Waymo Driver, our deliberate, safety-first approach to scaling, and an important step as we prepare to serve more riders across more cities soon.

I was riding in a @Waymo with my kids on a weekend afternoon on a quiet suburban road when another car recklessly cut across in front of us. The Waymo Driver handled it so well that the kids didn’t even notice. Grateful to our team!

With the $16B in new funding, we’re accelerating the deployment of the @Waymo Driver - the world’s most advanced physical-world AI. With nearly 200M fully-autonomous miles under our belt and scaling exponentially, we’re just getting started… trillions of miles and safer roads ahead! https://t.co/Uay1Ql7esy

We're bringing @Waymo to more places, faster than ever. This reflects years of building foundational AI tech behind the Waymo Driver and operations that enable us to scale safely and efficiently to major U.S. and global cities.

Great to see the @Waymo Driver performing well in Atlanta as we prep for our launch on @Uber later this summer, and another encouraging datapoint on generalizing well across geos.
