This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Tesla officially removing safety attendants from Robotaxis in Austin, Waymo's commercial launch in Miami, and Serve Robotics' strategic acquisition of Diligent Robotics.It finally happened. Tesla has removed safety attendants from a select group of vehicles in Austin. While this initial fleet is limited and operating in a specific geofence and utilizing chase cars, Grayson and Walt view this as a critical validation of the technology. Looking ahead, Grayson predicts the operational domain will expand significantly in Austin over the next 60 days, with the Phoenix metro region slated as the next target market for deployment. As Tesla went safety attendant-out, Waymoopened the Miami market for limited commercial service within a 60-square-mile area, with one major caveat, no Miami Beach. On the Foreign Autonomy Desk, Grayson and Walt discuss Geely's plan to deploy 100,000 methanol-powered robotaxis in China and the South Korean government's selection of Gwangju as the nation's first dedicated autonomous vehicle testing zone.Episode Chapters0:00 Tesla Removes Safety Attendant in Austin 9:19 Operational Efficiency 10:33 Alex Roy Goes Coast-to-Coast with Zero FSD Interventions 14:15 Drive on FSD, Get a Discount 18:25 FSD is Expanding as Prices are Increasing 23:31 New Robotaxi Markets 24:53 Waymo Launches Miami Markets28:33 Vandalizing Waymo's32:20 Serve Robotics Acquires Diligent Robotics36:41 Foreign Autonomy Desk 39:21 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, January 23, 2026 --------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Together, they documented all the ups, downs, twists and turns. Later, author and former Waymo consultant Larry Burns rides shotgun to talk about how these autonomous vehicles will massively disrupt the auto industry — and why Larry believes the tipping point for making these cars mainstream falls within this decade.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Sergey Litvinenko, Co-Founder & CEO of Koop, joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss the financial and operational structures required to insure fleets of personally owned autonomous vehicles.As Tesla prepares to scale the Cybercab in 2026, the conversation explores the shift from personal ownership to personally owned fleets, where individuals form companies to own and operate commercial robotaxi businesses.During the episode, Sergey explains how the insurance P&L for a fleet owner is transformed by real-world behavior data, which serves as a more accurate risk predictor than traditional human-centric metrics. By leveraging high-fidelity data and specialized subrogation models, Koop is developing a framework that manages liability between the fleet owner and the vehicle manufacturer, clearing the path for the Autonomy Economy to scale through third-party ownership.Episode Chapters0:00 The Emergence of the Tesla Network 3:07 Insuring Cybercab and Personally-Owned Teslas8:59 Insuring and Deploying Personally-Owned Autonomous Vehicle Fleets22:50 Insurance Underwriting Capacity 25:22 Insurance Products 27:50 Changing Driving Habits31:14 Reinsurance32:30 Liability with No Pedals and Steering Wheel 38:38 Fleet Management 41:55 Future of Insuring Autonomous Vehicle Fleet OperationsRecorded on Friday, January 16, 2026--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss New York Governor Hochul's bill to legalize autonomous vehicles in New York, with New York City notably carved out, Uber's changing Waymopartnership language and Waymo's upcoming expansion to Sydney. In New York, autonomous vehicles could be coming to state roads, but not New York City, as Mayor Mamdani is prioritizing taxi drivers over robotaxi deployment. Down in Texas, where autonomous vehicles can operate anywhere, Waymo has expanded their service area in Austin as Uber has changed their promotional language from “exclusively available on Uber” to simply “available on Uber” when promoting Waymo rides.On the international front, Waymo is actively planning to expand to Sydney following meetings with Australian Transport Minister Catherine King. In China, WeRide robotaxis are now available in the WeChat super app, enabling riders in Beijing to order autonomous rides directly through the platform.Episode Chapters0:00 Verizon Outage 1:45 New York's Unkind Welcome to Autonomous Vehicles 9:19 Robotaxi and Waymo Face-off in Austin12:47 Autonomy Markets Merch14:15 FSD Goes Subscription Only on Valentine's Day 17:18 Waymo Eyes Australian Expansion 21:03 Tensor Auto24:06 Stack AV26:14 Plus AI Expands to Japan28:33 Foreign Autonomy Desk 30:33 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, January 15, 2026--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Dan Ives believes we're still in stage three of ten when it comes to the AI revolution. He talks about why Apple (AAPL) will "continue to bet on Google" to power its AI as Alphabet (GOOGL) hits all-time highs and a $4 trillion market cap. As for his other top names, he considers Nvidia (NVDA) as the one chipmaker fueling the AI trade. However, he dubs his "AI 30" as other critical players through the Dan Ives AI Revolutions ETF (IVES). As for Tesla (TSLA), Dan explains why the company's slow rollout of robotaxi will be beneficial long-term. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Heute geht es bei mir um autonomes Fahren und Robotaxis: Ich habe meinen Führerschein vor rund 35 Jahren gemacht und kenne deshalb den typischen Anleger-Gedanken nur zu gut: „So weit sind wir noch lange nicht, bis das Auto wirklich für uns entscheidet.“ Das klingt schnell nach Hype. Doch nach meiner Fahrt gestern über eine Autobahn wurde mir schlagartig klar: Das wird kommen – sicher. Und vermutlich nicht erst in 15 Jahren, sondern eher in fünf bis zehn. Einige entscheidende Entwicklungen werden wir sogar deutlich früher sehen – und genau dort könnten auch für Anleger Chancen entstehen.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss the fallout from Waymo's crisis management failure in San Francisco, where a power outage left hundreds of vehicles stranded and blocking intersections throughout the city. Waymo's prolonged silence on the incident and lack of transparency regarding what truly happened could lead to a decline in public trust just as robotaxis begin to scale. Down in Austin, Tesla missed their 2025 driver-out deadline in Austin, prompting Grayson to push his prediction for driver-out/safety attendant out commercial service to late February or early March 2026.Then there is Uber, a company with an ever-changing narrative around autonomy—shifting from demand-generation to hybrid networks, and now claiming mass adoption is still decades away. What will the next narrative be, and will it change once again post-CES?Closing out the show, Grayson and Walt discuss how escalating geopolitical tensions in Venezuela and potential political shifts in the UK could force a hard reset for companies relying on Chinese autonomous technology to scale their robotaxi businesses.Episode Chapters0:00 Lights Out in San Francisco2:44 Why Did Waymo's Freeze When the Power Went Out?8:34 Remote Drivers15:00 Robotaxi in Austin18:33 Scaling Robotaxi 22:48 Autonomous Vehicle Policy24:47 Austin Incident Reports 27:17 Uber's Ever-Changing Narrative 30:31 Miami-Dade Sheriff Deploys Autonomous Patrol Vehicles 32:38 Foreign Autonomy Desk40:26 CESRecorded on Sunday, January 4, 2026 --------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

While Andy Swan with LikeFolio notes asymmetrical risk in Tesla (TSLA) due to uncertainty in autonomous driving's future and CEO Elon Musk, he considers the company's outlook excellent. He compares the company's autonomous driving milage outpacing Alphabet's (GOOGL) Waymo as a bullish signal to Tesla's future narrative. Andy explains why the company's outlook is so critical, especially as fourth quarter deliveries underwhelm Wall Street. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Cybercab's are being spotted all over Austin, Texas and Elon Musk has confirmed that production is starting in April, just 3 months away. Pre-production models are being seen at an increasing rate as Tesla gets ready to launch its newest vehicle. Purpose built for self-driving, the Cybercab will have no wheels and operate on Tesla's Robotaxi network. All Tesla investors are watching the growth of Robotaxi. Some think there will be tens of thousands of vehicles in the fleet by Q4 2026, others (like myself) think the rollout will be slower and more methodical.Comment your predictions on Tesla's Robotaxi/Cybercab rollout for 2026!!My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla stock, this show is not financial advice.

This year turned out to be a pretty big year for autonomous vehicles. Waymo is the leader in the robotaxi race and over the last year, its signature Jaguar electric vehicles have become a common sight on the streets and recently freeways of cities around the country.Companies like Uber and Zooks have expanded their fleets to several metropolitan areas. And Tesla finally rolled out its cybercab service in a limited capacity in Austin.Marketplace's Meghan McCarty Carino spoke to Kirsten Korosec, transportation editor at TechCrunch, about how the robotaxi became a common fixture on city streets this year.

Tu and Lei close out 2025 with a sweeping, on-the-ground review of the most consequential year yet for China's EV, AV, and mobility ecosystem — and why its ripple effects are now impossible for the rest of the world to ignore.  From CES to Shanghai, Munich, and New York, the hosts reflect on firsthand experiences that defined the year: China's EV export surge, the maturation of robotaxis, the cooling of the domestic price war, and the emergence of clear winners — and vulnerabilities — among Chinese and global automakers.They break down why BYD became a true global volume force, how XPeng, Geely, and Zeekr gained momentum, why NIO's long game is finally paying off, and what the rise of autonomous mobility outside China (Waymo, Baidu, WeRide, Pony.ai) means heading into 2026.The episode also revisits major inflection points: • Chinese EV exports flooding Europe, Latin America, Russia, and the UK • The beginning of an exported price war • Robotaxis moving from pilots to real commercial expansion • Why average vehicle prices topping $50,000 in the U.S. is unsustainable • How geopolitics, tariffs, and supply chains reshaped strategy • Why 2026 could be the year autonomy truly breaks throughCandid, data-driven, and reflective — this episode connects the dots on how 2025 reshaped the global auto industry and sets the stage for what comes next.⸻

"The rise of robotaxi" took the focus on Monday's opening bell. Diane King Hall talks about the San Francisco area's power outages impacting Alphabet's (GOOGL) Waymo services, along with a triangular partnership between Uber Technologies (UBER), Lyft Inc. (LYFT), and Baidu (BIDU). A one-time legal charge hit Honeywell's (HON) guidance but investors appeared to shake it off. Diane later taps Oracle (ORCL) after Wells Fargo reiterated an overweight rating. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Tesla hits a 2025 high as Elon Musk launches real-world robo-taxi tests in Austin. Pat, Tom, and Pomp break down why legacy automakers are backing off, why Wall Street is finally treating Tesla like an AI company, and how Elon's vision keeps driving the stock.

Tesla stock just closed at an all-time high of $489.88 per share! This makes the company worth over $1.5T! We've got a flurry of bullish news that is driving this optimism. First is the safety drivers are about to be removed for the Robotaxi service in Austin. This will be a huge milestone for the self-driving business and pave the way for massive growth there. Additionally, it looks like this SpaceX IPO IS HAPPENING. There are all sorts of ways this could benefit Tesla ... mainly AI chips in Space? That's right I think in 2030 Tesla will be sending its AI8 chip to space on a SpaceX rocket and work as a datacenter in space. Crazy times!!
