Tesla's robotaxi debut in Austin got people excited. But can the company compete on the global stage with Chinese AV giants like Baidu and Pony.ai?

Anything but trains, subways, trams, or buses?

Tech won't solve traffic, proper investment into public transportation will. Investment in these startups should be funneled into self driving public transportation.

China has quite a number of trains already. Arguably they overbuilt their train network as much of it is heavily underutilized.

Isn't that now for their cross country trains as opposed to their subways?
