Tesla’s robotaxi reality check

theverge.com David Pierce 2026-03-05 10:11:55

After years of grand promises about how robotaxis would change the way we buy and use our cars, Tesla finally launched its taxi service. In one small portion of one city. With only a few cars and a few riders. Plus safety monitors in the passenger seat. Caution is a good thing in this industry, but what does all this say about where Tesla’s self-driving efforts really stand? After that, The Verge’s Allison Johnson joins the show to dive deep on MVNOs. In the United States, the cell market is co

Robots are transforming warehouse automation and ending back-breaking truck loading

techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2026-03-05 15:46:00

The big picture: As the warehouse floor becomes increasingly automated, robots now handle the most punishing aspects of logistics, while people focus on oversight, problem-solving, and continuous improvement. With companies like DHL, FedEx, UPS, and Walmart investing heavily in robotics, the era of the backbreaking warehouse job may soon be history. The last stronghold of human labor in warehouses – the grueling job of loading and unloading trucks – is rapidly giving way to a new generation of

Tesla Robotaxi Terrifyingly Jerks Wheel Back and Forth While Carrying Passenger

Tesla's Robotaxi service is finally, actually here. And for the most part, the launch, which took place this weekend, has been pretty uneventful. A spate of Tesla "influencers" have already uploaded videos of their first rides depicting the driverless cabs — though not supervisor-less, as each one comes with a human "safety monitor" silently riding shotgun — roaming the streets of Austin, Texas.

UK proposes greater regulation for Google's search practices

The UK might introduce new regulations for Google. The country's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has proposed designating the company's search services with "strategic market status" (SMS).
