Isn’t this Andrew Ng’s wife’s company
Yes, I think it is
Hope it's not powered by Apple maps, might end up in a lake
😂 That was a few years back. Apple map is actually a lot better now and even more accurate in certain domains. I see a lot of new homes not show in Google maps but show in Apple maps.
Thank you for being a good employee! 👍
It’s an acqhire
Old news, project Titan
It's seems Apple has some kind of love/hate for AV. First Titan, then laid offs, now acquire Drive.ai... uuumm
Then more layoffs?
What up Windows Phone of Cars.
Hard to believe Microsoft is not in the self-driving car race, given its massive R&D capability?
Not hard to believe. The auto industry is a logistical nightmare and a colossal money pit.
No wonder everyone at drive.ai is leaving.
They might not have bought it for AV but for different markets where the underlying tech can be used like AR/VR or robotics. If they have some useful IP it sounds like a bargain for Apple to get something already developed for less than it cost them to develop. Isn't this the first AV company to go belly-up ? I wonder if it's the start of bubble bursting for these vaporware companies.
Any patent they can squat for lawsuits later?
