The UK-based firm has had a string of breakthroughs in the last few years. In 2021 it showed that it could take AI trained on the streets of London and use it to drive cars in four other cities across the UK, a challenge that typically requires significant reengineering. Last year it used that same AI to drive more than one kind of vehicle, another industry first. And now it can chat to its cars.

"The first thing we want to do is make it very, very visibly distinct, so that your expectations around the vehicle also click."

Britain could soon become a hotbed for driverless car testing, according to UK Transport Secretary Chris Grayling. New laws set to be rolled out next month will rule who is to blame if an autonomous vehicle crashes. It is hoped that the move will allow the UK to become a'world leader' in driverless cars and allow it to get an early share of the lucrative market. New laws set to come in next month will rule who is to blame if an autonomous vehicle crashes. This is where the issue often occurs, as the rules aren't clear as to who is responsible if a crash occurs.
