Stories like this don't scare me because we found out that it was going to mine crypto.
It's all the AI stories where there is no story because we have no idea it's happening because it's untraceable or it's covered in some way.
I don't worry too much about the ones we find.
It's all the ones we're not going to find.
When you say this is out of control, it's like, yeah.
also also how does it cover paths and things like that I mean that's a bit of the idea that Pandora out of the box thing you know or Pandora's box rather not Pandora out of the box it's Friday so okay Pandora was in a box now sure Pandora's in a box that makes sense it's a piece of jewelry or something yeah we'll go with it Andy do you have any other news stories before we roll no I'm eager to see your demos
Okay, cool.
The other one I had really quick for the other news story was just Uber to invest $1.25 billion into Rivian.
I only find that for the new RoboTaxi deal.
They previously had done that with Lucid.
So this is another deal that Uber is doing.
What I find more interesting about that is that Rivian has not really... This is what they call out on this article.
They haven't really shown their ability to have any sort of like...
full autonomy cars they've talked about it we know they have really great uh really great software but it's not exactly proven so i would say this is a big leap of faith from uber into ribbian for something that is not is not proven yet or even like a little bit proven
It's not like we have Rivian cars driving around as current robo-taxis.
So it's $1.35 billion.
It starts with $300 million.
There's a lot of benchmarks that Rivian needs to hit in order for it to actually hit that tall number, but that's the one that made the headlines.
So interesting there, kind of AI adjacent, but we know there's AI being used in all of these projects.
self-driving and full autonomy, level four, level five, all this kind of thing.
