🚗 Wayve, the UK-based autonomous driving startup, is gearing up to tackle a major new challenge: bringing its driverless tech to San Francisco 🌉
With its AI-powered cars having learned to drive on London's roads, the big shift will be from left-side driving to right-side driving. Sounds simple, right? But as Wayve’s VP of Software, Silvius Rus, points out—even for seasoned human drivers, switching sides is anything but trivial. This move will push the boundaries of Wayve’s AI, which uses a unique "end-to-end learning" model, learning through experience rather than traditional programming.
Wayve’s growth has attracted significant attention and funding, including a record-breaking $1B round in May. As it goes head-to-head with big players like Waymo, Cruise, and Tesla, its innovative approach could redefine the future of autonomous driving.
The company is also looking beyond cars, envisioning a future where its "embodied AI" model could control various machines—on wheels, wings, or even legs. Driving is just a stepping stone.
With big plans and big tech, Wayve could be closing in on what some call the autonomous vehicle industry's "ChatGPT moment." Which company will lead the way?
