The World's First Autonomous Taxis Just Started Driving in Singapore

#artificialintelligence

NuTonomy, an autonomous taxi startup, has been working with the Singapore government in developing self-driving technology for quite some time now. They have been rather silent about progress, up until they broke it with a big reveal. Beating competitors like Uber and Google, NuTonomy has been able to place self-driving taxis on Singaporean roads for public, revealing the service earlier today. The public trials are starting small--six vehicles for now, with up to a dozen by year's end. The cars, mostly Renault Zoe and Mitsubishi i-MiEV electric cars, are debuting in the (primarily tech) business district area, one-north.
