TLDR; The article is not only void of any new information but also falsly claims that Google has given up on manufacturing its own self-driving car without citing any sources[1]. Then it goes on to get quotes from "experts" asserting that building cars is too hard outside Detroit. That's basically about it. Its all bull crap, if you ask me, and potentially paid article by some lobby. If a tiny company called Tesla can build a car out of nowhere, so can others. Although, the risk taking appetite of big tech companies has certainly went down recently and it does remains questionable if they can actually pull off putting car on market. [1] There has not been any news (like Apple) on Google giving up on car project. In fact as per recent interview, the project is alive and well: http://www.theverge.com/2016/10/25/13307364/google-self-driving-car-design-yoojung-ahn-interview http://www.theverge.com/2016/10/25/13307364/google-self-driv...
