Today, I’m talking with Xinzhou Wu, who is the head of automotive at Nvidia. Nvidia is obviously in the news constantly because of the AI boom — it’s one of the most valuable companies in the world, because the AI industry can’t get enough of the company’s GPUs. But Nvidia is also a key supplier […]
NHTSA administrator Jonathan Morris called reports that self-driving cars had driven into emergency scenes and blocked ambulances and firefighters “unacceptable.”
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said emergency scenes are not "edge cases."
For more than a decade, one question has loomed over the race to build autonomous vehicles: Are cameras alone enough to safely replace human drivers, or do truly driverless cars need additional, overlapping sensors like lidar and radar to navigate the world reliably? Tesla has bet billions of dollars that artificial intelligence and cameras are […]
A key delay from a state agency means robotaxi rides in the company’s new Ojai vehicle might be free for a few more months.
Even the most advanced enterprise systems are tethered to a costly paradox: manual bottlenecks that introduce critical errors, security risks, and slow innovation. These hidden operational anchors are the friction preventing your organization from realizing its full potential. The Challenge: Manual Bottlenecks in Modern Enterprise Operations In an era defined by cloud-native architectures, microservices, and declarative infrastructure, a persistent and costly paradox remains at the heart of enterprise operations. We have built systems capable of immense scale and resilience, yet they are often tethered to manual, human-driven processes that act as operational anchors. These bottlenecks aren't just minor inefficiencies; they are critical points of failure, introducing latency, human error, and security vulnerabilities into our most important workflows. They represent the friction that slows down innovation, drains resources, and prevents organizations from realizing the full potential of their digital investments. Before we can orchestrate an autonomous workspace, we must first dissect the anatomy of these manual constraints. Identifying the High Cost of Manual Invoice Reconciliation To ground this challenge in reality, consider a ubiquitous and deceptively complex business process: accounts payable invoice reconciliation. On the surface, it seems simple. In practice, it's a classic example of a high-friction, manual workflow that silently bleeds enterprise resources. The typical process is a gauntlet of context-switching and swivel-chair integration: An invoice arrives, often as a PDF attached to an email, with no standardized format. A finance professional must manually open the document and visually identify key data points: invoice number, date, vendor, line items, and total amount. They then pivot to an ERP system like SAP or NetSuite to find the corresponding Purchase Order (PO). Next, they might need to access a separate logistics or warehouse management syste
The autonomous vehicle space is starting to feel like a repeat of the 2016 hype cycle. Travis Kalanick is back building a robotics company, and the talent wars and capital are heating up the same way they did the first time around. The money’s flowing back, and it’s the people who lived through that first […]
The company may finally be ready to try to deliver on Elon Musk's years-long promise of launching a robotaxi network of its own.
The companies confirmed to TechCrunch that their unusual partnership in Phoenix recently ended after nearly three years..
Aseon Labs, which came out of Y Combinator's 2026 spring cohort, has raised $10 million from Crane Venture Partners and others.
The Department of Transportation wants to remove the brake-pedal requirement for vehicles "designed to be driven exclusively by automated driving systems."
Zoox, the autonomous vehicle company owned by Amazon, unveiled a new look for its boxy, bidirectional robotaxi, calling it the "next evolution" of the vehicle intended for mass production. The company is currently operating a free robotaxi service in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Austin, and Miami while it waits for the federal government to approve […]
The company's latest recall of 3,871 vehicles follows incidents of its autonomous cars prioritizing other hazards or failing to recognize closed construction zones altogether.
The company has identified at least 13 instances where its robotaxis drove into highway sections closed for construction.
Mobileye apparently wants to own some of the robotaxi market, even if that puts it in direct competition with companies it supplies its self-driving system to.
Against all odds, the Tesla Cybercab is in production. And while Elon Musk's company may not have a very coherent plan for the tiny, autonomous two-seater, it's still taking the necessary steps to certify the EV's legitimacy. As such, Tesla recently filed paperwork with the Environmental Protection Agency that reveal many of the Cybercab's specs, […]
Uber One, meet Waymo Premier. The robotaxi operator announced a new $29.99-a-month premium tier for riders who want a more elevated and exclusive autonomous experience. The invite-only membership service is aimed at Waymo customers who use the service most frequently, offering them a number of perks, including priority pickups, 10 percent cash back on every […]
Waymo has a lot of experience building virtual systems to help its autonomous vehicles better understand the real world. It built realistic 3D worlds to better anticipate natural disasters and unpredictable edge cases. It created a virtual representation of a hyperattentive driver to test against its own autonomous vehicles in a series of simulated scenarios […]
Rivian may be all in on robotaxis and autonomy, but it's still got human drivers - and EV buyers - to win over. The pricey R1S SUV and R1T pickup brought Rivian A-list media attention and cult-hit status, but the company faces a critical next step. The 2027 R2 is Rivian's bid for mainstream success, […]
Uber is getting ready to put robotaxis on London's streets, opening an interest list for riders who want to be among the first to hail one of Wayve's autonomous vehicles when the service goes live later this year. The rollout would be a milestone in one of Uber's biggest markets and an early test of […]
