In order to earn back trust and save not just GM Cruise, but the American AV industry, it is imperative that GM Cruise changes how and what they share with the public and regulators. By setting a new bar for transparency and openness, GM Cruise has the opportunity to not only regain trust, but also contribute to the competition between American companies and keep the country at the forefront of AV technology development. By transcending its failure of imagination and listening to the voices of its employees, GM Cruise can make a positive impact.
With Cruise banned from testing and rides in the state of California following new revelations that the firm hid details of a pedestrian crash from the DMV, the gang huddles with Trucks VC partner and the godfather of The Autonocast Reilly Brennan to talk through the issues, impacts and path forward from another sector-defining incident. Plus, Reilly opens his mobility jobs board to startups in the sector.
