Hey Ed.

Well firstly, as you know, London is a incredibly difficult place to drive.

It's a two thousand year old city.

Uh it's full of narrow roads, frequent uh pedestrians and cyclists.

And so uh I'm delighted that we've been able to bring our technology here.

We've been learning to drive here for a decade, and it's uh I think one of the hardest places in the world to learn to drive.

Uh, but we're starting with a supervised service this week with safety operators.

And the path to get uh to to launch a driveless service is really three things.

The first one is to move to a scalable vehicle platform.

You know, our business model works with automakers so that they build the robotaxis, uh, no retrofits or built-in mass production hardware.

Uh second, of course, validating the safety metrics we need uh for driverless operation.

And third, uh, we've got a a

Permit today for supervised operations, and we're working with regulators towards a driverless permit.

So those three things which we're working on very quickly over here in

Yeah, that that's right.

We've um we've looked to build a business where we want to provide intelligence across anyone who wants to build intelligent machines.

And uniquely we've got an AI that can scale from consumer vehicles to robotaxis.

So we are deploying our AI in consumer vehicles with a number of leading automakers like Nissan and Stillantis.

And of course, uh as of today, uh starting robotaxi services today in London, uh and by the end of the year, we'll be scaling this to Tokyo.

Tokyo and we've agreed with Uber to take it to ten cities beyond that as well.
