Sterling Anderson doesn’t think humanoid robots should be building cars

Speaking of autonomy, we have autonomous vehicles on the road today — Waymo, Zoox, and Tesla Cybercabs.

If you believe that your driver assistance system is super capable, you are already at risk of complacency — at risk of treating it like it’s an autonomous system.

Our philosophy is: If we’re going to design an autonomous system, we’re going to actually design an autonomous system.

In the same way you put a robotaxi in a bounded region, we will put personally owned autonomous vehicles on a particular road.

AI is cutting vehicle development times, but we’re also seeing hype around factory automation and humanoid robots from companies like Tesla and Rivian.
