Self-driving robotaxi successfully tested on public roads

Self-driving cars are one step closer

 
Amazon’s self-driving unit, Zoox, has successfully tested a robotaxi on a public road, with people in it.

The test took Zoox employees from one company building to another, about a mile apart in California.

This was a part of a no-cost employee shuttle service to connect the company better.

The CEO revealed that the achievement is a big step, and it would not have been done unless all the requirements were appropriate.

“Putting the vehicle on (an) open public road and validating our approach to all of the different requirements, including regulatory, is a big step and we would not have done it unless internally we were already looking at the line of sight for going commercial,” Achai Evans said on a conference call.

Zoox’s robotaxi – built as a fully autonomous vehicle from scratch rather than retrofitting existing cars for self-driving – comes without a steering wheel or pedals and has room for four passengers, with two facing each other.

Amazon bought Zoox for $1.3 billion in 2020.

Global memory chip shortage raises electronics prices; impacts PCs, smartphones, and likely continues until 2026.


A severe global shortage of memory chips is sending shockwaves through the electronics industry, causing prices to rise across consumer devices. Experts warn that this shortage will continue until at least 2026, affecting everything from PCs to smartphones.

Major manufacturers, including Samsung Electronics, have reported record profits but caution that rising memory chip prices could put further pressure on the sector. This shortage is largely driven by AI technology demands, forcing companies to rethink production priorities.

Consumers should expect higher costs for electronics in the coming months, with price increases likely to continue through the end of 2026.
