Nuro levert daarvoor de technologie. Uber steekt 300 miljoen dollar in Lucid en daar zijn beleggers blij mee. Het aandeel is ruim 36% gestegen.

From balloon internet, drone delivery, and self-driving cars, Alphabet's X chief Astro Teller reveals how the company systematically chases the impossible!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1183What We Discuss with Astro Teller:Alphabet's X systematically approaches moonshots by requiring three elements: a huge problem, a radical proposed solution, and breakthrough technology that gives a chance — not guarantee — of success.Prototype cheaply and fast to test assumptions. The agricultural robot started as bicycle wheels, PVC tubing, laptop, GoPro and duct tape — not expensive equipment.Bring regulators into the process early as partners rather than waiting until the end. They become collaborators when included in the journey, not obstacles.Detach identity from ideas. People who tie self-worth to specific concepts struggle at X. Success comes from being great at filtering ideas, not being right about yours.Ask yourself: "How fast and cheaply can I get evidence I'm wrong?"

Autonomous vehicle giant Waymo is starting to experiment with subscription packages for teens — including those too young to drive. But as America's kids gain high-tech motorized independence, what will they lose in exchange?  Today on the Brake, host Kea Wilson is going solo for an informal chat about the debate over driverless cars as a youth mobility solution, how autonomous vehicles could even further isolate young people from their communities, and the dangers of relying on corporations for our basic human needs. And along the way, she touches on teen driving safety, the concept of "bumpability," and why parents are scared to let their kids outside on their own, even if they're not worried about car crashes.

In this special Market Mondays clip, the hosts dive deep into why Uber might just be the sleeper stock of the decade. Troy Millings breaks down his bullish long-term view on Uber, especially as the company stands to benefit from the coming wave of autonomous vehicles. With competitors like Waymo pushing into new markets and the constant talk around Tesla and robo-taxis, is Uber's powerful platform and trusted brand its ultimate edge?The conversation unpacks how autonomous vehicle partnerships could revolutionize Uber, especially as driver costs are the biggest expense for the company. Food delivery isn't left out—imagine a world where your meals arrive without a driver, putting even more revenue right into Uber's pocket.Ian Dunlap and Rashad Bilal join in to discuss Uber's recent stock performance, its impressive turnaround from the low $20s in 2022, and why the company isn't even at $100 per share yet. They touch on Uber's competition with Lyft, the fallout from the old Uber vs. Google/Waymo lawsuit, and why Uber remains the household name despite the ride-sharing wars.If you're curious about investing strategies, Troy also breaks down *leap options*: what they are, why he prefers to go out as far as possible (sometimes 2–3 years ahead), and how deep-in-the-money strikes can maximize gains while minimizing risk. He throws in a reference to how prominent figures like Nancy Pelosi use similar long-term option strategies for major blue-chip stocks, and explains his personal approach to playing Uber for the long game.Whether you're an investor in the tech space, a fan of finance news, or you just want the inside scoop on where ride-sharing and delivery is heading, this clip packs actionable insight you won't want to miss.*Topics covered:* Uber's potential in autonomous vehicles The competition (Waymo, Lyft, Tesla's robo-taxi ambitions) The importance of trust and platform dominance in ride-sharing How autonomous food delivery could boost Uber's revenue Explanation of leap options and “deep-in-the-money” strategies Real-world examples from high-profile investors The reason Uber's stock price could soon reflect its full potentialStay tuned for more Market Mondays as we bring you fresh takes, real numbers, and strategies from the streets to the boardroom.*Don't forget to like, subscribe, and comment with your thoughts or questions below!* #Uber #MarketMondays #Stocks #Investing #AutonomousVehicles #OptionsTrading #LeapOptions #Finance #Rideshare #TechStocks #Waymo #Tesla #FinancialEducation #StockMarket #LongTermInvestingOur Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk headed to Austin, Texas to experience Robotaxi firsthand.After spending the week in Austin and experiencing Robotaxi firsthand, we came away truly impressed. Tesla did it, they cracked full self-driving with a vision-only system. From our very first ride we noticed how the autonomous driving system was confident, yet not risky. It performed at a high-level and even out performed Waymo in several instances when we tested both autonomous driving systems side by side in a variety of real-world scenarios.Over dozens of fully autonomous rides, Robotaxi navigated city streets, handled tricky parking situations, and adapted seamlessly without a single intervention. The experience exceeded our expectations, and further validated that Tesla's vision-only approach is not just a technical milestone, but it is the future of autonomy.Episode Chapters0:00 Robotaxi Special Edition1:29 First Robotaxi Ride and Our Impressions7:47 Robotaxi Learnings11:33 Expanding Austin ODD14:46 Robotaxi, Waymo on Uber20:44 Grocery Stores25:24 Austin, Safety Attendants, & Maintenance29:53 Blending InRecorded the Week of July 7, 2025--------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™.

Katie Holmes liked a post that announced that her ex-husband Tom Cruise is now with a new woman and she immediately unliked it! Anna and Raven talk about how to avoid accidentally liking a post and the platform that shows you who is looking at your profile! Would you let your teenager take a car that is driven by a robot? Waymo is making that possible, so Anna asks her 16-year-old daughter Hayden who she thinks is a better driver: her or Waymo. Anna lists three news stories that seem almost out of this world, and Raven can only pick and hear about one! Find out what the top 10 companies are to work for! Do you work for one of these companies and what makes it so good! Anna accidentally threw away something that was important to her daughter, not thinking it was important!

Dana, of course, wants her mother in the delivery room with her- and much to her horror, her mother-in-law mentioned that she plans to be in the room as well. She says that her husband needs to tell his mom, no, she can't be in the room, she can wait until after the delivery to meet the baby. He argues that it isn't fair that her mom gets to be in the room and part of the event, and his mom doesn't. What do you think? Jackie has a chance to win $1800! All she has to do is answer more pop culture questions than Raven in Can't Beat Raven!

WWJ auto analyst John McElroy reports there are three new developments regarding autonomous cars. One involves Waymo and teens.

The independent online bookseller Bookshop.org took a swipe at Amazon to celebrate the start of Prime Day, Amazon's annual sale (which, despite its name, is actually four days this year). Like many other retailers, Bookshop.org holds a sale to coincide with Amazon's big event — it's a way to lure away consumers. Also, Activision last week brought offline the Microsoft Store version of "Call of Duty: WWII" as the company was investigating “reports of an issue”; and Waymo has begun offering teen accounts for families in Phoenix as it works to expand more of its user base and entrench young riders in the autonomous life.

From AI capability breakthroughs to autonomous vehicles, climate extremes to workforce transformation, I examine what I got right, what I missed, and why the 2027-2028 period will be when vertical AI hits the real economy in force.In this episode you'll hear:The AI wall that never came: Ten-million-token models exist, O3 scores 25% on Frontier Math vs GPT-4's 2%, but some models are inconsistent and overthink problemsWhen bots officially out-talk humans: My modeling shows LLMs crossed the threshold of producing more text than humans sometime this summerThe Waymo vs Uber SF battle: They've beaten Lyft and expanded to New York, but Tesla's Austin robo-taxi fleet changes the competitive landscapeClimate and energy predictions that were "too easy": Record climate extremes, 30% solar growth, and Indonesia's stunning EV jump from 20% to 80% in two yearsWhat I completely missed: The AI capex boom, humanoid robots at Figure/BMW/Amazon, and workforce impact with CEOs reporting 20-50% AI assistanceWhy getting too many predictions right is a problem: I reflect on whether scoring too well means I didn't push boundaries enough in my forecastingThe 2027-2028 turbulence ahead: Why four-year-old AI startups challenging incumbents while early adopters reap deep organizational benefits will create economic turbulenceOur new showThis was originally recorded for “Friday with Azeem Azhar”, a new show that takes place every Friday at 9am PT and 12pm ET.

过去十年，自动驾驶技术经历了从实验室走向真实道路的飞跃。资本涌入也一度让这个领域成为全球科技产业最火热的赛道之一。然而，真正落地的过程却远比想象中曲折。 今天的自动驾驶行业正面临着一个显而易见的路线分歧：一派主张「循序渐进」：从 L2 辅助驾驶做起，逐步向更高级别的 L5 过渡，特斯拉是最典型的代表；另一派则选择「从高阶入手」，绕过低阶辅助驾驶，直接构建基于高精地图和激光雷达的 L4/L5 自动驾驶系统，如 Waymo、百度和滴滴等 Robotaxi 公司。此外，是否依赖高精地图、是否采用视觉为主的感知方案、是否拥抱大模型与端到端架构，也成为自动驾驶玩家们「共识」与「非共识」分野的标志。 在这期节目中，我们邀请到了元戎启行的创始人兼 CEO 周光。节目中，我们聊聊他对当前技术趋势的判断，对自动驾驶技术的本质的理解，以及商业落地的一些思考。 关于营养工厂

Is Elon Musk the Henry Ford of our day? In which ways? Some surprises, perhaps, in a Mobility Musings essay from Michael Sena who joins Alain and Fred for episode 393 of Smart Driving Cars. Plus- the Tesla robotaxi rollout and the coverage of it, Waymo, VW, driverless systems in China, Malcolm Gladwell and more.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Waymo's gradual move away from owning and operate a fleet of robotaxis, Moove's growing fleet ownership ambitions and Ford's LiDAR demands. Moove, a company backed by Uber, is in the process of raising $1.2 billion in debt to purchase Waymo vehicles. Is this yet another signal that Waymo is preparing to shift away from operating a capital-intensive robotaxi business and instead focusing on licensing the Waymo Driver? If this is indeed a signal, what impact will this have on the rideshare industry?As Waymo business appears to be evolving, Ford CEO Jim Farley has publicly declared that any autonomous driving system Ford licenses must use LiDAR. Is this bravado aimed at Tesla, or a genuine strategy?Closing out the episode, Grayson and Walt discuss the failure of the AI preemption clause in the Big Beautiful Bill.Episode Chapters0:00 Moove's $1.2 Billion Dollar Debt Raise4:30 Rideshare Usage in 20 Years12:55 Breaking Down AVOMO and Moove16:45 Uber's Growing Autonomous Vehicle Fleet Asset Ambitions 20:38 Ford's LiDAR Demands22:32 Is Ford Talking to Waymo Again?24:50 Wayve Drive in The Big Apple27:56 Big Beautiful Bill30:29 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, July 3, 2025--------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™.

Tesla (TSLA) vehicle deliveries fell 14% while global competitors like BYD Co. (BYDDY) continued to grow. "Tesla needs a gameplan to catch up," says Steve Westly. Otherwise, he sees the company falling behind. The company's robotaxi acts as a buffer for innovation but Steve adds that Waymo's acceleration poses another headwind for Tesla's growth. Macro headwinds in evolving U.S. policy, like EV credits being sidelined, add to challenges against the Mag 7 giant.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

I took my wife on three Tesla Robotaxi rides and two Waymo rides in Austin, Texas. I learned a lot from her reaction. Social

Large companies have, in the past, been hesitant to leap onto every tech innovation and trend. But WSJ's Steven Rosenbush says the artificial intelligence boom is different. Plus, Waymo is valued at $45 billion dollars, a far cry from Tesla's $1-trillion valuation. WSJ Heard on the Street columnist Dan Gallagher writes that the launch of Elon Musk's robotaxis actually shows why Google's self-driving car company is worth more.

Daniel and Shawn step back for a mid-year review of the Intrinsic Value Portfolio, revisiting each holding to test the strength of their original theses and weigh what's changed. From ride-hailing to beauty retail, this episode covers the full lineup: why Uber's cross-sell flywheel and Waymo partnership reinforce its moat; how Alphabet's latest earnings measure up against the growing threat of AI-native search; and why Reddit may succeed where Snapchat struggled, turning engagement into monetisation. You'll hear updates on Q1 earnings, commentary on management execution, and discussions on whether current valuations still offer upside or warrant trimming. They re-evaluate Airbnb's evolving strategy as it expands into services and experiences, break down Ulta Beauty's standout results, and revisit early convictions in new names like Nubank. They also debate the long-term outlook for consumer brands like Nike. Along the way, they reflect on where they've been right, where they've been early, and how to think about sizing, patience, and risk-reward in a concentrated portfolio. Prefer to watch?

This week, we saddle up for another bumpy ride through the dystopian tech clown show. We kick off with the surveillance state's greatest hits: ICE raids sweeping L.A., a website literally called FuckLAPD.com that lets you ID cops by their mug shots, and a Norwegian tourist who learned the hard way that having a JD Vance chipmunk meme on your phone is now grounds for deportation. Pro tip: if you're traveling to the U.S., you might want to wrap your phone in lead and bury it in a cornfield.In the news, Big Balls has apparently rolled his way from Elon's Department of Government Efficiency to the Social Security Administration—because nothing says “government modernization” like a 19-year-old tech bro with a meme nickname. Meanwhile, Tesla robotaxis are hitting the roads (and maybe a few pedestrians) with human babysitters in tow, Waymo and Uber are turning Atlanta into Blade Runner Lite, and Texas wants a permit for your self-driving car. Over in AI hell, judges can't agree if training your chatbot on stolen books is fair use or just digital asbestos. YouTube, never one to miss a race to the bottom, is rolling out an AI Slop button so you can crank up the crap to 11.In Media Candy, Russell Crowe is beefing up his IMDb with Highlander, Henry Cavill is along for the ride, and Anthony Bourdain Day is apparently a thing (even though he'd have rolled his eyes at it). We also dig into everything from Minecraft movies to the sad demise of Blue Microphones at the hands of Logitech. Plus, Dave Bittner drops by to commiserate about malware, retro gaming handhelds, and why some Star Wars maps are basically porn for nerds. And yes—Windows is finally killing the Blue Screen of Death, proving even Microsoft can eventually learn to read the room.DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Tesla is famous for throwing caution to the wind in the name of rolling out cool technology, so it was somewhat surprising to see its robotaxi service launch over the weekend in somewhat muted fashion. The Verge's Andy Hawkins joins the show to explain what, exactly, Elon Musk and co. launched, and what it says about the state of the self-driving revolution. After that, The Verge's Allison Johnson takes us through the history of MVNOs, and why they might just be the best deal in wireless carriers. We talk about Trump Mobile, Ryan Reynolds, e-SIMs, and what it would mean to make it easier to switch service. Finally, we answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline about how to free up storage on your iPhone. It's harder than it should be, but hopefully easier than you think.
