Show Notes

In 2011, famed venture capitalist Marc Andreessen wrote his magnus opus, “Why software is eating the world.” Now it’s reshaping the future of AVs.

.

In this Unplugged episode of SAE Tomorrow Today, host Grayson Brulte discusses how software has fundamentally transformed various industries with a focus on Tesla’s recently unveiled Cybercab, and how the strategy for this two-passenger AV could signal a shift away from shared robotaxis toward personal AV ownership.

.

Key topics include the role of software updates in advancing autonomy, shifting the cost burden of operating a robotaxi fleet, and the future of self-driving technology using camera-only systems.
