Most Av developers and manufacturers wants exclusivity. Ben explains on @RoadToAutonomy with @gbrulte why Autolane has stayed independent from day one instead, and why that's what lets the whole autonomous delivery industry move forward together. youtu.be/TmLEUCk83Hs

.@WeRide_AI secured a national operating permit for L4 autonomous passenger vehicles in Spain. The @RoadToAutonomy Robotaxi Index tracked it and reflected it in WeRide's latest index ranking.
Rank change in the Robotaxi Index. @WeRide_ai moves up to No. 3, from No. 4.

Important to keep in mind as we head towards tomorrows’s @robotaxi event! Huge inflection moment for Tesla.
.@Tesla’s Cybercab strategy isn’t an exemption petition. It’s self-certification. @RobGsix explains why on Autonomy Signals presented by @KPMG.

On the August 8th episode of Autonomy Markets, @WaltLightShed asked me if @Uber / @Nuro / @LucidMotors would launch a paid robotaxi service in California by year-end. I said no. Here's why. $UBER

We aren't just deploying robots. We're building the operating layer of physical AI. @ahkashani digs into what that takes on the @RoadToAutonomy podcast.

I have always held strong conviction in @KodiakRobotics' leadership position. It is, of course, nice to see it confirmed in independent metrics like @RoadToAutonomy's Autonomous Truck Index. Kodiak’s technology is deployed in 35 driverless trucks, as of June 30, the largest customer owned-and-operated fleet of semis in the world. indices.roadtoautonomy.com/

What no one is talking about besides The @RoadToAutonomy is that this is all part of China's Belt and Road Initiative 2.0. Which we have coined as The Autonomous Belt and Road Initiative. The ambitions are GRAND and STRATEGIC!
Developers around the world are increasingly turning to Chinese open weights models for the greater control and lower costs they provide If we really want customers around the world to succeed — and for America to lead — I hope American AI companies will focus on putting out some of the best open models in addition to the best closed frontier models. Otherwise, the world will be run on Chinese values. One immediate step American companies could take is to offer low cost tokens for developing countries.

The next wave of AI is robotics—and it starts with autonomous vehicles. We agree, and we built the Indices to track it! The Road to Autonomy Robotaxi Index indices.roadtoautonomy.com/r… and The Road to Autonomy Robotaxi Confidence Index indices.roadtoautonomy.com/r…
Today, we’re launching Alpamayo 2 Super, our frontier open reasoning model for autonomous vehicles. Beyond seeing, Alpamayo understands and reasons through the complex world - thinks before it acts. It’s a powerful backbone for robotaxis, trucks, shuttles, delivery vans, tractors and the long tail of mobile robots—billions of autonomous machines someday. We’re releasing it for commercial use under OpenMDW-1.1 so teams can inspect it, fine-tune it and deploy it—open models advance safety and security. The next wave of AI is robotics—and it starts with autonomous vehicles. Great work, Alpamayo team! blogs.nvidia.com/blog/alpama…

Given what I’m seeing with Baidu, WeRide, Pony, Momenta, Deeproute, Neolix, Didi, Xpeng and others, China is leading or near leading in the physical AI race as well with robotaxis and delivery bots.
