The program allows aircraft owners to apply for a temporary aircraft registration number that is not currently attached to any other plane — meaning that celebrities like Musk can essentially fly anonymously. The PIA program allows aircraft owners to switch out their registration number every 60 days. The incognito registration number also doesn't prevent Sweeney from tracking the private jet via ADS-B Exchange, a public flight-tracking database. Elon Musk's private jet flight with PIA flag, tracked by Jack Sweeney. Jack Sweeney via ADS-B ExchangeMusk is also on the FAA's free "Limiting Aircraft Data Displayed" program, or LADD list.

☆ Exclusive emails show Austin officials bragging about its lack of oversight of a new self-driving delivery service from Ford and Argo AI

Several cities launched an autonomous vehicle delivery service for Walmart orders with Ford vehicles using Argo AI's self-driving car technology. In 2016, Arizona Governor Doug Ducey announced Uber's self-driving car pilot by proclaiming that Arizona "welcomes Uber self-driving cars" while states with regulatory laws do not. Part of the companies' motivation for the self-driving car delivery service is the drive to meet Walmart's consumer demands for "next-day or same-day delivery." Argo AI was founded in 2016 by two former engineers from Google and Uber's self-driving car programs, respectively. Argo AI hired more than 1,700 people in 6 years but laid off many of its recruiters in July.

☆ Explainer: How are life insurers coping in LDI storm?

LONDON, Oct 13 (Reuters) - The focus of a gilt market storm has been around pension schemes' use of liability-driven investments (LDI), many of which are highly leveraged. Life insurers also use LDI strategies in their provision of annuities, which pay a fixed income for life. HOW HAVE LIFE INSURERS PERFORMED? Life insurers were more likely to have hedged their positions with physical financial instruments, rather than with derivatives, analysts say. WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR LIFE INSURERS?

☆ Lyft president still thinks driverless cars will dominate ride-share. He just won't say when
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-11 | by ( Michael Wayland | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

DETROIT — In 2016, Lyft co-founder John Zimmer predicted most of the company's rides would be self-driving within five years, a transformation that would largely eliminate the need for costly drivers. Today, the ride-hailing company is still nowhere near that milestone, and Zimmer, Lyft's president, isn't saying when he thinks it might come to pass. But he still believes self-driving vehicles remain a critical part of Lyft's future. Zimmer, acknowledging that he already got it wrong once, declined to speculate on when a majority of Lyft rides would be offered without a driver. "I'm extremely confident that autonomous vehicles will roll out on existing ride-share or transportation networks," he said.

Meanwhile, shares of pension providers such as Legal & General (LGEN.L), Prudential (PRU.L) and Aviva (AV.L) fell between 2.3% and 3.3%. UK's banking index (.FTNMX301010) was down 1.6% at a one-week low despite prospects of a large rate hike by the BoE next month. However, the internationally focussed FTSE 100 has outperformed UK's domestically exposed FTSE 250 (.FTMC) this year, as a weakening pound and strength in commodity prices boosted the former. The FTSE 100 has shed 6.8% so in 2022, while the midcap index has lost about 28% - set for its worst annual performance since 2008. Ukraine-focused miner Ferrexpo Plc (FXPO.L) fell 9.1%, as it temporarily suspended production after Russian missile attacks damaged state-owned electrical infrastructure.

☆ Aviva Investors agrees outsourcing deal with BNY Mellon

A BNY Mellon sign is seen on their headquarters in New York's financial district, January 19, 2011. REUTERS/Brendan McDermid (UNITED STATES - Tags: BUSINESS)LONDON, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Aviva Investors (AV.L) has agreed a deal to outsource data and back office functions to BNY Mellon (BK.N), the two companies said on Tuesday, as the investment division of the British insurer looks to bolster its services to clients and cut costs. Asset managers have increasingly been handing over responsibility for back office functions such as custody of securities to third parties, while outsourcing has in some cases extended as far as front office functions such as trading. Transferring activities such as custody, accounting and performance measurement to BNY Mellon will "allow us to enhance our client proposition and improve operational efficiency," Mark Versey, Aviva Investors CEO, said in a statement, adding that the partnership with BNY Mellon was "transformative" for the fund manager's business. BNY Mellon said it was using cloud-based platform Data Vault to provide data to Aviva.

This is the first time Cruise has acknowledged the long-term need for remote human operators. Truly autonomous vehicles are far behind the optimistic rollout schedules predicted just a few years ago. In a June interview on YouTube, Musk said developing self-driving cars was "way harder than I originally thought, by far." Over time, those people will act as "air traffic controllers," supervising a growing number of autonomous cars. "Even decades from now you will not get to 100% truly autonomous vehicles," Kaveh added.
