What happens if self-driving cars don’t happen this decade?
Late 2022 has seen many grim declarations of the future of self-driving, particularly after the decision by Ford/VW to close down Argo.AI, their self-driving startup. Other companies in the self-driving space and LIDAR space have seen market devaluations even worse than the already horrible tech space, and startups are having trouble with funding. There’s lots of doom and gloom, though in counter to that MobilEye has a great IPO and Waymo, Cruise and others have announced new milestones and improvements.
