Einride’s autonomous trucks to learn from Nvidia’s Alpamayo

What Alpamayo is built to do Nvidia introduced the Alpamayo family at CES in January.

The Alpamayo models “serve as large-scale teacher models” that developers fine-tune and distill into smaller models for their own driving systems, Nvidia said.

Its outputs are compared against Einride’s driving planner and human driver performance while existing safety systems stay in full control.

PlusAI also adapting Alpamayo for trucks Einride said it plans to be the first trucking company to deploy Alpamayo on Hyperion.

PlusAI said in March it is adapting Alpamayo for heavy-duty trucking on Level 4 trucks built on Nvidia’s DRIVE AGX Hyperion platform.
