A lot of negativity here. Hey maybe Apple has figured out autonomous car and no longer needs that 200 employees!

  As usual. The truth is that Apple hasn't promised anything and delivered nothing. Google on the other side, has promised everything and delivered nothing. And they promissed it "in five years" in 2012...

        That's just bull, it's on Arizona, on a closed circuit test track. > And starting very soon, the company plans to invite regular people for rides in these fully self-driving vehicles. What happened since 2017?

    Delivered nothing over the millions of fully autonomous miles? Delivered nothing to the residents of the Phoenix area who are using their SDC? And, yes, as usual, tech company way over-promising on timelines. But that's no different from anyone else trying to generate hype and garner investments/public partners.
