Episode notes

Exploring a software stack for self-driving systems that adapts to diverse sensors, computes, and tasks, and contrasts lightweight, low-cost solutions like Tesla with high-cost complete stack solutions. The chapter also addresses scaling challenges, economic viability, diversity of data for robustness, and software deployment's role in achieving autonomy and safety with a sustainable business model.

After many discussions about the divide between Level 4 robotaxis/trucks and "AI first" general solutions for automotive use cases, The Autonocast finally welcomes one of the leaders in the latter approach to the show. Alex Kendall is the founder and CEO of the UK-based startup Wayve, which just raised a billion dollars to continue developing its unique approach to driving automation. He joins the gang to discuss Wayve's technology, go to market strategy, safety philosophy, and much more.
