I told Elon Musk that I told you that “Tesla autonomous control can be expected, says Wayve CEO:” We will remain humble “
Not many people could tell Tesla CEO Elon Musk that I told you as Alex Kendall was able to. But for the CEO of Wayve, a start -up company in London, which is a key person in an autonomous ride, this Barb can be expected.
“This is one day a fun Twitter post, but … we'll be humble for now,” Kendall said on Tuesday on display Interview at Fortune Brainstorm AI event In London.
When Musk first heard about Wayve AI's deep learning approach to autonomous driving, he did not sell him. Instead, Tesla chose a rules -based approach in which separate modules are used to perceive, design and control the vehicle.
Wayve, on the other hand, uses a self-learning AI system, which means that the untreated data of the vehicle sensors is directed to the nerve network and from there to deep learning models by navigating the vehicle. The system, also called “from end to end deep learning,” is designed to respond to the complexity of the real world as human leaders do, instead of simply following the rules that may not take into account these complexities.
Kendall, along with London, driving around Treasure AI editor Jeremy Kahn explained last year how the vehicle was working.
“None as the car was controlled, or it is worn in terms of speed, it is not hand -programmed,” he said. “It does not follow the card, but makes all these decisions based on it.”
In 2023. Tesla announced a turnSaying it switches to a approach similar to Wayve.
“I remember meeting Elon a few years ago and he didn't believe in learning from end to end,” reminded Screened podcast 2023 in October. “And so he comes out and says, in fact, we change our approach to it. I mean it justifies me.”
On Tuesday, Kendall reiterated that in the brainstorming, saying Tesla made his turn. But he is not one that gloat. According to him, autonomous driving is one of the biggest engineering problems that are today “and he is waiting for more challenges ahead. With this in mind, “one of the main values we have in the company, humility and actually do not expect we know the solutions.”
Kendall may be forgiven that he lost at least a slight humility, given his starting rising. New -Seamaran founded in 2017 after him award -winning doctoral studies At Cambridge University that showed “How Ots-Mõpin deep learning allows for a safe and real-time scene” write On his website.
A year ago Wayve amount of more than a billion dollars Softbank, Nvidia and Microsoft – just seven years after its establishment.
Wayve hopes that many car manufacturers will cover their AI technology. Last month Nissan became the firstSaying that it integrates the startup offering system for the assistance system of its driver in 2027.
