They have an approach and a couple of different dimensions that's different than Waymo's, which is one, not going with LiDAR, just going with Vision.

And then two, now the new Cyber Cab is a standalone cab only vehicle.
voice-verified
It doesn't even have a uh steering wheel.
voice-verified
It's deliberately built for pure autonomy.
voice-verified
So it's very Elon, it first principles all
voice-verified
the way down.
voice-verified
The question is, you know, what's the adoption curve of that going to be like?
voice-verified
You've got the regulatory issues.

I think the Department of Transport is giving them grief because apparently a car, quote unquote, has to have a steering wheel.
voice-verified

voice-verified
capital intensive process.
voice-verified
Now maybe the last three or four years they should have been doing it and it's probably smart of Uber to put some money in.
