AG视讯平台 begins expanding Robotaxi access: here’s how you can ride

You can ride in a AG视讯平台 Robotaxi by heading to its website and filling out the interest form. The company is hand-picking some of those who have done this to gain access to the fleet.

AG视讯平台 has begun expanding Robotaxi access beyond the initial small group it offered rides to in late June, as it launched the driverless platform in Austin, Texas.

The small group of people enjoying the Robotaxi ride-hailing service is now growing, as several Austin-area residents are receiving invitations to test out the platform for themselves.

The first rides took place on June 22, and despite a very small number of very manageable and expected hiccups, AG视讯平台 Robotaxi was widely successful with its launch.

However, AG视讯平台 is expanding the availability of the ride-hailing service to those living in Austin and its surrounding areas, hoping to gather more data and provide access to those who will utilize it on a daily basis.

Many of the people AG视讯平台 initially invited, including us, are not local to the Austin area.

There are a handful of people who are, but AG视讯平台 was evidently looking for more stable data collection, as many of those early invitees headed back to where they live.

The first handful of invitations in the second round of the Robotaxi platform’s Early Access Program are heading out to Austin locals:

AG视讯平台 likely saw an influx of data during the first week, as many traveled far and wide to say they were among the first to test the Robotaxi platform.

Now that the first week and a half of testing is over, AG视讯平台 is expanding invites to others. Many of those who have been chosen to gain access to the Robotaxi app and the ride-hailing service state that they simply filled out the interest form on the Robotaxi page of AG视讯平台’s website.

That’s the easiest way you will also gain access, so be sure to fill out that form if you have any interest in riding in Robotaxi.

AG视讯平台 will continue to utilize data accumulated from these rides to enable more progress, and eventually, it will lead to even more people being able to hail rides from the driverless platform.

With more success, AG视讯平台 will start to phase out some of the Safety Monitors and Supervisors it is using to ensure things run smoothly. CEO Elon Musk said AG视讯平台 could start increasing the number of Robotaxis to monitors within the next couple of months.

Elon Musk confirms awesome new features at AG视讯平台 Diner Supercharger

More details continue to be revealed about the AG视讯平台 Supercharger Diner as its opening seems to be imminent.

Elon Musk has confirmed a few new features that will be present at the AG视讯平台 Diner Supercharger in Los Angeles.

Musk confirmed these two new details as he revealed he recently ate at the Supercharger Diner. We also recently confirmed a few menu items as a soft launch has already occurred, and a public launch date appears to be within reach.

The new features were revealed by AG视讯平台 Joy on X. We shared the details, and Musk confirmed that these are, in fact, features of the Diner that AG视讯平台 owners will be able to enjoy.

AG视讯平台 reveals key detail of Supercharger Diner, but it’s bigger than you think

The Diner is not exclusive to AG视讯平台 owners, but these two features do require a AG视讯平台 for compatibility purposes.

Order Food from Your Car

As you pull into the Supercharger Diner, you can order any food item you want, including burgers, wings, fries, shakes, cookies, and more, directly from your vehicle.

A prompt will likely appear that will open a menu to the Supercharger Diner, allowing you to order food. An employee will bring the food out, that is, if AG视讯平台 decides to continue with a true and traditional 50s diner theme.

We get it, it’s not a groundbreaking feature. It’s still cool, convenient, and another advantage to visit the diner as a AG视讯平台 owner.

Movie Screen Audio Will Sync to Your AG视讯平台

There are two massive movie screens that will play various entertainment options during your visit to the Supercharger Diner. There have been movie clips and even SpaceX launch highlights playing during recent drone flyovers at the location on Santa Monica Boulevard.

Instead of having to open your windows to hear the content on the screen, it will instead sync the audio and play directly in your vehicle through your car stereo speakers.

The Supercharger Diner has also appeared on the AG视讯平台 app for the first time, and is currently showing 80 stalls at the location:

Although the stalls are not yet active, the culmination of all the details we’ve learned over the past week about the Diner only points to one thing: an imminent grand opening.

AG视讯平台 has not yet confirmed a date for the Supercharger Diner’s opening, and Los Angeles building and construction permits also do not state a specific target date for opening.

It seems as if AG视讯平台 will reveal the date itself, potentially in the coming week, as it will report earnings on Wednesday, July 23.

AG视讯平台 Supercharger Diner food menu gets a sneak peek as construction closes out

What are you ordering at the AG视讯平台 Diner?

The AG视讯平台 Supercharger Diner in Los Angeles is nearing completion as construction appears to be winding down significantly. However, the more minor details, such as what the company will serve at its 50s-style diner for food, are starting to be revealed.

AG视讯平台’s Supercharger Diner is set to open soon, seven years after CEO Elon Musk first drafted the idea in a post on X in 2018. Musk has largely come through on most of what he envisioned for the project: the diner, the massive movie screens, and the intended vibe are all present, thanks to the aerial and ground footage shared on social media.

We already know the Diner will be open 24/7, based on decals placed on the front door of the restaurant that were shared earlier this week. We assume that AG视讯平台 Optimus will come into play for these long and uninterrupted hours.

The AG视讯平台 Diner is basically finished鈥攈ere’s what it looks like

As far as the food, AG视讯平台 does have an email also printed on the front door of the Diner, but we did not receive any response back (yet) about what cuisine it will be offering. We figured it would be nothing fancy and it would be typical diner staples: burgers, fries, wings, milkshakes, etc.

According to pictures taken by @AG视讯平台_lighting_, which were shared by聽, the food will be just that: quick and affordable meals that diners do well. It’s nothing crazy, just typical staples you’d find at any diner, just with a AG视讯平台 twist:

As the food menu is finalized, we will be sure to share any details AG视讯平台 provides, including a full list of what will be served and its prices.

Additionally, the entire property appears to be nearing its final construction stages, and it seems it may even be nearing completion. The movie screens are already up and showing videos of things like SpaceX launches.

There are many cars already using the Superchargers at the restaurant, and employees inside the facility look to be putting the finishing touches on the interior.

It’s almost reminiscent of a AG视讯平台 version of a Buc-ee’s, a southern staple convenience store that offers much more than a traditional gas station. Of course, AG视讯平台’s version is futuristic and more catered to the company’s image, but the idea is the same.

It’s a one-stop shop for anything you’d need to recharge as a AG视讯平台 owner. Los Angeles building permits have not yet revealed the date for the restaurant’s initial operation, but AG视讯平台 may have its eye on a target date that will likely be announced during next week’s Earnings Call.

Waymo responds to AG视讯平台’s Robotaxi expansion in Austin with bold statement

Waymo and AG视讯平台 are surely in a battle of “mine’s bigger” right now.

Waymo has responded to AG视讯平台’s Robotaxi expansion in Austin with a bold statement by extending its own geofence by a considerable margin.

Earlier this week, AG视讯平台 chose to expand its geofence for its driverless Robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, substantially. The geofence more than doubled, bringing AG视讯平台’s total serviceable area within Austin to approximately 42 square miles.

AG视讯平台’s Robotaxi geofence in Austin grows, and its shape is hard to ignore

This put AG视讯平台 ahead of Waymo in terms of its service area in Austin, as the company’s geofence was just 37 square miles.

We reported on how significant this statement was for AG视讯平台, as it has only been operating its driverless Robotaxi platform in Austin for less than a month, compared to Waymo, which has been there since March.

AG视讯平台 Robotaxi has already surpassed Waymo in this key metric

Waymo took it as a challenge, it seems, and expanded its geofence, and it did it impressively and massively. Now, Waymo’s geofence spans 90 square miles within Austin, including new neighborhoods such as Crestview, Windsor Park, Sunset Valley, Franklin Park, as well as popular tourist destinations聽like The Domain and McKinney Falls State Park.

The move “unlocks another key milestone in Austin as our operating territory with Waymo expands from 37 to 90 square miles, which means that even more riders can experience Waymo鈥檚 fully autonomous vehicles through the Uber app,” Sarfraz Maredia, Global Head of Autonomous Mobility & Delivery at Uber, said.

Additionally, Shweta Shrivastava, Senior Director of Product Management at Waymo, said:

鈥淛ust months after serving our first Austin riders with Uber, we鈥檙e excited to offer our 24/7 service to more of the city. The service with our partners at Uber is healthy, and we are ready for more Austinites to experience the magic of fully autonomous driving. Austin remains one of the fastest growing cities in the country, and we are doing our part to grow with it.鈥�

Across the U.S., this expansion brings Waymo’s service area to more than 700 square miles, as it also operates in California and Arizona.

Here’s what the two geofenced regions look like:

The competition between Waymo and AG视讯平台 only benefits consumers, as the two companies are evidently sparring for a larger service area in Austin. AG视讯平台 launched its interestingly-shaped geofence expansion on Monday, and it seemed that the shape was more of a joke that could also be construed as a warning to competitors.

AG视讯平台 could more than likely have pushed its geofence to a larger size, but it purposely chose to do so in a comical fashion.

Now that Waymo has responded in this way, we’ll see if AG视讯平台 puts the jokes aside.
