Re: The world of automation

I'm in the Google ecosystem, but figured I'd give Alexa a try. Also some legacy Apple devices but avoiding their ecosystem. I am a bit blown away at Amazon's commercial power at using Alexa to...

Re: The world of automation

I'm just using for the radio and a timer and the occasional question. I don't think Alexa is as informed as Google (yet) but looking forward to where these smart assistants will be in five years time.

Re: The world of automation

Ah, ok. I suppose it depends on the ownership/use model for AV. If it's a subscription service to a local service provider, insurance would be bought by that provider. If individual ownership,...

Re: The world of automation

If an L4 is able to navigate a complex urban environment, then it's only a matter of time (5-10 years) until an L5 can do the same. It's happening.

Re: The world of automation

Re: The world of automation

Tell that to Sears.

With this significant e-comnerce roll out in the Eastern US they should have quite an impact on Main Street USA, well beyond Queens NY.

Jobs are created, but also destroyed....

Re: The world of automation

Probably a bit early on that metric. There has been an increase in share-cars and share-bikes in CBDs over the past decade, but I imagine it hasn't made a major dent in car ownership yet. As cars...

Re: The world of automation

2030 for the flying AV maybe. Robotaxis and specialised delivery tech seems pretty much ready. Trialling on live streets means rollout is within sight.

Re: The world of automation

When would that be ?

Robotaxis to roll out in 2021. Shall we say AV becomes 'common' by 2030?

Re: The world of automation

Yes, definitely. Are they running those single driver convoys yet or is that just in testing phase?
