Amazon Robotaxi Team Growing, Robotaxi Use Launches In Las Vegas

Three years ago, in late June 2020, I wrote about Amazon buying the robotaxi startup Zoox. This year, while many robotaxi companies and projects have either folded or scaled back, one might think that Amazon and Zoox have been doing the same. Earlier this year, in February, Zoox robotaxis hit the streets of California. Now, Zoox is expanding that robotaxi service. On June 16, Zoox robotaxis began operating for employee use there — no drivers, no pedals, no steering wheels.
