Uber announced Friday it is expanding its partnership with Alphabet’s Waymo to offer robotaxi rides in Austin, Texas, and Atlanta beginning in early 2025. Uber riders in those cities can be matched with a driverless Waymo car for some trips, according to the companies. A Waymo spokesperson said it had no plans to partner with Uber in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Uber’s initial agreement with Waymo in Phoenix also included autonomous Uber Eats deliveries in the city. Some analysts were more hopeful for a potential Uber and Waymo expansion into San Francisco.

Back in June, CEO Elon Musk claimed Optimus robots could make Tesla a $25 trillion company one day.

☆ Tesla says it will launch Full Self Driving product in Europe and China early next year
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-05 | by ( Ryan Browne | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

Tesla said it will launch its "Full Self Driving" driver assistance product in Europe and China early next year. Tesla is yet to receive regulatory permission to launch its FSD product in Europe and China, but Musk in July said that he expects to get this clearance by the end of 2024. So-called Full Self Driving, or FSD, has been a key pillar of Musk's strategy to make Tesla a more AI-centric company and push toward self-driving technology. Despite the label on its product, FSD is not actually capable of making its vehicles fully autonomous. FSD is an upgrade to Tesla's Autopilot driver assistant, which is already available in Europe and China.

Reuters —Cruise will offer its autonomous vehicles on Uber’s platform starting next year, the companies said on Thursday, as the General Motors-backed robotaxi firm attempts a comeback. The multi-year partnership will allow Uber riders to choose a trip using a Cruise autonomous vehicle, they said. Uber’s partnership with Cruise comes as Tesla CEO Elon Musk is set to unveil its delayed plans for a robotaxi product in October amid slowing demand for electric vehicles. Commercializing autonomous vehicles has been tougher than expected and taken longer than promised due to complex technology, soaring investments, tight regulatory scrutiny and federal investigations. Trips by self-driving vehicles on Uber’s platform rose six-fold in the June quarter year-on-year, helped by partnerships with companies including Waymo, as well as startup Waabi for freight services.

Hedge fund manager Dan Niles is betting on Apple and Meta Platforms as two stocks that can ride out a potential U.S. recession. Apple Niles expects strong revenue growth in the coming year as consumers upgrade to AI-enabled iPhones. "Their revenue growth has been minuscule the last three years because people already have a smartphone. "I think that revenue growth goes to double digits over 10% probably next year, as people upgrade to an AI-enabled smartphone." Meta Niles expressed particular confidence in Meta's prospects, praising the company's effective use of AI in its core business.

New York CNN —Tesla CEO Elon Musk says anyone who doubts how valuable robotaxis will make the company should test drive its latest self-driving car. A Wall Street analyst did just that – and said the car almost crashed. The experience of WIlliam Stein, an analyst with Truist Securities, is not unique; others have also reported problems with Tesla’s full self driving, or FSD, feature. But a note from Stein raises questions as to whether the autonomous driving and robotaxis Musk is betting Tesla’s future on are as close as he claims. Tesla’s FSD driver-assist feature is sold as an $8,000 option.

In Mr. Musk’s telling, one of Tesla’s main A.I.-based businesses will be driverless taxis, or robotaxis, that can operate pretty much anywhere and in any condition. Tesla is very close to perfecting such vehicles and will easily secure regulatory approval to put them on roads, Mr. Musk said last week on a conference call to discuss the company’s second quarter results. Mr. Musk’s vision of autonomous vehicles, or A.V.s, is not limited to cars that drive themselves. He has also claimed that individuals who buy Teslas would be able to make money when they are asleep or at work by letting the company use their cars as robotaxis. The robotaxi service will, Mr. Musk has said, catapult Tesla’s stock market valuation, around $700 billion now, into the trillions of dollars.
