Will the future of transportation be robotaxis – or your own self-driving car?

This week in tech: General Motors says goodbye to robotaxis but not self-driving cars; one woman's fight to keep AI out of applications for housing; Salt Typhoon; and tech's donations to Donald Trump. Thank you for joining me. When God shuts down one robotaxi business, he resurrects another. Last week, General Motors announced it would stop funding its subsidiary Cruise, which made self-driving car software and operated a robotaxi service. The unit had been a leader in autonomous vehicles until a near-fatal crash in late 2023, when a Cruise car hit a pedestrian and dragged her along the road underneath its chassis.
