Nvidia Wants in on the Robotaxi Race

gizmodo.com Bruce Gil 2025-09-21 18:25:10

Nvidia is in talks to invest $500 million in the London-based self-driving car startup Wayve Technologies. Nvidia’s interest comes as the sci-fi dream of driverless cars inches closer to reality. Alphabet’s Waymo robotaxis already roam several U.S. cities, Tesla is testing its own service in Austin, and Amazon’s Zoox taxis—which have no steering wheels or pedals—just started offering rides in Las Vegas this month. The tech for driverless cars is accelerating so quickly that Uber CEO Dara Khosr

As Electrek reports, the Elon Musk-led company reported the three crashes, which occurred in the early days of its pilot robotaxi service in Austin, to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA.)

Jaguar Smashes Record for the Species’ Longest Recorded Swim, Baffling Scientists

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-09-24 06:12:47

Despite what they say about cats and water, jaguars are powerful swimmers. These predators rarely stray from the rivers and wetlands that permeate their rainforest habitat, and they readily dive in to hunt for prey. Usually, these dips are relatively brief: Until now, the farthest jaguar swim on record was just 656 feet (200 meters). But now, scientists have observed a jaguar in Brazil smashing that record as if they were a feline Michael Phelps, with the big cat seemingly paddling for more tha

Clean hydrogen is facing a big reality check

Here are three things to know about the state of hydrogen in 2025. 1. Expectations for annual clean hydrogen production by 2030 are shrinking, for the first time. While hydrogen has the potential to serve as a clean fuel, today most is made with processes that use fossil fuels. As of 2025, about a million metric tons of low-emissions hydrogen are produced annually. That’s less than 1% of total hydrogen production.
