And if the company succeeds in its master plan, the Waymo Driver software powering its driverless robotaxis would be included for other uses such as trucking, deliveries and, eventually, personal vehicles, the company told the Chronicle.

A shift towards personal vehicles would be an interesting move. Trucking seems like a pretty obvious use case though, and I'm kind of surprised there aren't more projects in this area already.
