Manage episode 507105367 series 3442174
May Mobility has launched a robotaxi fleet in Atlanta through a partnership with Lyft, with standby operators included to help ease riders into the technology, Founder and CEO Edwin Olson said. Passengers booking through Lyft can opt in or out of an autonomous ride. Olson discussed May Mobility’s strategy with Bloomberg Intelligence Global Head of Technology Research Mandeep Singh on this episode of the Tech Disruptors podcast, highlighting its decision to build its own hardware and algorithms rather than rely on third parties like Google’s Waymo or Tesla. He also addressed how the company chooses new cities and the variable costs involved in scaling operations.
