California releases last year's autonomous testing results and the data tells *some* of the story. Ed may be responsible for more deaths. Again. We also chat about the Daimler-Uber tie-up, along with Cadillac Book and the normal detritus you've come to love and loathe. 

Ed interviews Amitai Bin-Nun, the director of autonomous vehicle initiative's at Securing America's Future Energy, and is joined by SAFE's VP of content and communications, Leslie Hayward to discuss data sharing, partnering for the greater good, and the challenges ahead for self-driving car companies and suppliers.

We survived the holidays, CES, and Detroit, so we're back to discuss the insanity in Vegas, including Faraday Future's hyper-hyped second act, along with 15 years of car spying, and yes, the incoming Trump administration's tactics with the Big 3. 

Remember December? It was the run-up to CES... Faraday Future was on the ropes, Uber was doing its usual thing (flaunting rules to its own ends), and Waymo launched, kinda-sorta-spinning-out from Alphabet/Google/X. We talked about it all, but lost it to the recording demons. While we're slaying them, here's the lost episode thanks to Ed's backup recording.

Alex and Damon sit down in a noisy bar to discuss the LA Auto Show, Automobility LA, and who is plotting to kill us.

We're back from the LA Auto Show and out of our tryptophanic haze to discuss Comma.ai's decision to go open-source to avoid troublesome regulations, Elaine Chao's appointment to head up the DoT under the Trump administration, NHTSA's letter to GM about Cadillac's SuperCruise, and more. 

Alex, Damon, and Ed chat about Comma.ai's decision to cancel its first project, the cognitive dissonance between the ideal world and reality, and what's to be done about data.

Tesla's big Autopilot announcement leaves more questions than answers, but it's the picture of clarity compared to LeEco's U.S. launch this week. And are journalists complicit in killing people when they report on the problems with autonomous technology?

Alex, Ed, and Damon discuss the Tesla Autopilot situation in Germany and at home, Apple's reported decision to scale back Project Titan, and why Silicon Valley is so obsessed with AVs.
