New series: Mike & Amit Talk Tech
Autonomous Vehicles: The bumpy road to self-driving cars
Companies like Waymo and Tesla are throwing the kitchen sink at autonomous vehicles. Every year from 2015 to 2021, Elon Musk predicted that we would have fully self-driving cars within 12 months. He’s been proven wrong over and over again.
With hundreds of billions of dollars being sunk into the technology, it’s a wonder to some that we are still using steering wheels and gear shifts to get us from A to B. Off our highways, however, the story is a little different. On farms and in mines, on railways and in the skies, many vehicles are now almost completely autonomous. So why can’t we make the leap onto the open road?
In Episode 5 of Mike & Amit Talk Tech, Professor Michael Wade explains why we’re in an “autonomous driving winter”, while AI authority Amit Joshi tells us why the last stage of self-driving development will require a lot more investment.
