JAMUL, CA (FEB 2020) — Author Alex Schuler captures intense determination and a clash of egos in his new action thriller, Faster. It follows a fictional engineer and computer scientist who helped pioneer the self-driving car industry while navigating their own tumultuous relationship. Their drive to take on Detroit and become leaders in this technological revolution leaves the reader in awe of what humanity can accomplish, and just how much sacrifice it takes to change the world. Autonomous car breakthroughs spiked during the DARPA challenges between 2004 and 2013, giving names to eccentric computer scientists and engineers drawn to innovation. These remarkable individuals often find themselves embroiled in controversy as they forge new paths. Robotics wonderkid Sebastian Thrun is regularly in the news for his “internet freedom” crusades. Elon Musk is legendary for breaking norms, such as the Tesla autopilot feature rushed to market in 2015. Autonomous vehicle guru Anthony Levandowski took on Google, then found himself sentenced to jail, only to be pardoned by former president Donald Trump. These pioneers dedicated their lives to technological progress. But what’s behind their drive—self-interest or a desire to improve society? Or some of both? Alex Schuler fictionalizes the autonomous car industry’s past, exploring the motivations of these innovators and asking what we can expect for the future.

The case has attracted much public attention. Alex Davies has reflected: Until today, the race to build a self-driving car seemed to hinge on who had the best technology. Now it’s become a case of full-blown corporate intrigue. Alphabet’s self-driving startup, Waymo, is suing Uber, accusing the ridesharing giant of stealing critical autonomous driving technology. If the suit goes to trial, Apple’s legal battle with Samsung could wind up looking tame by comparison.1 The intellectual property dispute could have significant implications for competition in respect of self-driving cars and autonomous vehicles. The New York Times has noted that ‘companies in Silicon Valley and Detroit are betting big on self-driving car technology’ and ‘the

According to GOED: “The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a number of adverse effects on the State of Nevada’s economy, as the State has been faced with disruptions to existing supply chain infrastructure. The strain placed on the supply chain throughout the public health emergency has resulted in significant delays for the delivery of essential products and lifesaving prescription medications for Nevada residents.” This Study focuses on the steps that Nevada can take to improve its supply chain infrastructure to adequately respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and contains the following elements.

This thesis articulates a likely future for the deployment of AVs. Through stakeholder interviews and industry case studies, I show that there is general optimism about the progress of AV technology and its power to positively impact society. Stakeholders across sectors are expecting a future of autonomous electric fleets, but have divergent attitudes toward the regulation needed to facilitate its implementation.

Das Foto stammt vom National Transportation Safety Board, das die Untersuchung des Vorfalls übernahm. (Copyright: public domain) Am 18. März 2018 starb Elaine Herzberg auf einer vierspurigen Straße in Tempe, Arizona. Die Amerikanerin hatte, ihr Fahrrad schiebend, versucht, die Straße zu Fuß zu überqueren. Getrofen wurde sie von einem Testfahrzeug des Unternehmens Uber, das in der Stadt seine hochautomatisierten Fahrzeuge erprobte. Der Volvo traf Elaine Herzberg ungebremst mit einer Geschwindigkeit von knapp 70 Kilometern pro Stunde. Sie war die erste Fußgängerin überhaupt, die von einem „autonomen“ Fahrzeug getötet wurde. Doch warum kam Herzberg zu Tode? War sie unvermittelt vor Ubers Volvo getreten?
