> They have no reason to release it to the public.

I mean, if it reflects positively on them, they have huge reason; they want to put as much distance between their response and Cruise's as possible, and show that they're acting in good faith.

A large part of what killed Cruise was, well, either the cover-up or its employees' amazingly persistent internet connectivity problems, depending on how cynical you want to be.




The positive PR is so negligible it’s not worth it. This is an incident where no one was even injured.

If they want to put as much distance between themselves and Cruise, they just need to be transparent with the regulators and not play games with them.


Eh, if I want to be as upfront and "look how open we're being" as possible. They have a marginal basically-prototype product, in a limited market where a lot of people are already very annoyed about them, and the main competitor has just vanished in a puff of poor crisis management. They should really be leaning on demonstrating to the public that they're different.
