Marc Vrecko, CEO of Valeo Brain, commented: “This open-science collaboration with KE:SAI marks a strategic milestone for Valeo and the broader European automotive ecosystem.

Andreas Geiger, CEO of KE:SAI, commented: “For language models, open source compressed years of progress into months, yet frontier physical AI is still largely closed.

This partnership aims to push open source autonomous driving research towards the frontier as we have seen players achieve in the LLM space.
