“How can we destroy the journey into pieces of the size of the sting, so do not feel magic or overcome it?” Jesse Levinson, founder and CEO of Zoox says. “This moment is huge, but the service is still not paid and somewhat limited.” Zoox was launched in 2014, and although it tests its technique in San Francisco, in its incubator city, California, the headquarters, and in Las Vegas for years, this will be the first time that anyone has been allowed ready to download an application for its ride. The company was Amazon got it in 2020 For $ 1.2 billion.
Ulsen, CEO of May Mobility, says he is comfortable with the slow launch of the company after watching others rushing to put self -driving cars on the road. “One of the things we have seen all over the industry is that the car may be brilliantly caused, but then he will do inappropriate things in the edge situations,” says Olsen. He refuses to say exactly when the company will remove safety drivers from its vehicles, or when its partnership in Lyft may expand to other regions or cities, but he says that any movements by the company will be tested and verified with real data and simulation. He says the service will expand more quickly over time.
Two auto companys in the United States have closed in the past decade after robota participated in serious road accidents. In 2018, a self -driving test car is run by Uber’s Advanced Technologies Hit and killed a woman in Timby, Arizona. Uber Self -driving technique was sold To a competitor in 2020. In 2023, General Motors Cruise hit the infantry in San Francisco after the person dumping the empty Robotaxi path through a collision with another car; State organizers later learned that Pulling the journey 20 feet While I tried to get out of the traffic, and cancel the company’s work. General Motors It came out of the works of Robotaxi after a yearQuoting the high costs of development and the desire to focus on personal compounds.
Keep a roboty
However, Robotaxi says it has a lot of public publishing operations on the horizon. Zoox says she will start capturing the two general cycles in San Francisco later this year, then she will be launched in Austin and Miami. May Mobility plans to spread robots in Arlington, Texas, before the end of the year, this time on the Uber platform. Waymo has announced a future service in many American cities, including Miami, Washington, Dallas and Dallas. Tesla runs only a small ride service in the California Bay area With drivers behind the wheel Using the full (supervisory) driving technique, which requires a person in advance to stay alert at all times. Musk is planning to move quickly: it is He said this spring The company will get “millions” of vehicles that operate independently by the second half of next year.
Self -driving developers have argued that their technology would increase safety and ride, leading to long -term prices. (Of course, these companies will also not have to pay a reduction for each trip to human drivers.) But even in Phoenix and San Francisco, where Waymo was running a public roboty for years, cities have not yet hinted a clear glimpse of how to convert expensive resident technology.
“Not wide after anything has changed significantly,” says Adam Milard Ball, a professor of urban planning, who directs the Institute of Transport Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Milard Paul says Robotaxi services should get much larger, before they can prove their wide visions. Waymo has Studies released indicate that its technology is safer than human drivers In many situations, but some experts still argue that it is difficult to compare robots’ performance with humans given the number still limited of miles paid by cars.
“Could this make the rideshare making?” Jeremy Bird, Executive Vice President of Driver Experience, who collaborated with May Mobility to launch Atlanta. Bird says that Lev has studied data from where independent vehicles have already been published, and it is believed that the answer is yes. But when the robot becomes a project for money music, it is still a major question mark. Obviously, although many people are still working to discover this.
