They are also noisy. Electric cars won't change that.

But they do. Electric vehicles are much much quieter than the average ICE car. The gap is smaller for newer ICE vehicles, but it's still there.

In the case of Waymo, they are not a solution to relieve transit in busy cities.

Agreed, but it doesn't mean they don't have their place. In an ideal world, if would result in more car sharing. In reality, they provide the ability to mobilise the disabled as well as people that can't afford cars in places with poor transport links.
