A Major Week for Autonomous Vehicles; Decommissioning Chemical Missiles with Robots

Mike and Steve recap a major week for autonomous vehicles, including the first driverless robotaxi ride in SF, Waymo starting to map New York City and another $600M in funding for Nuro. Steve also interviews James DeSmet, president and CEO of CRG Automation. The company built a robotic system to help decommission a stockpile of chemical weapons at a base in Kentucky. James walks us through the challenges of the project.
