Self-Driving: Failure by Design | TinyML | Alibaba’s IC Means So Much

This is your Briefing for the week ending August 2nd.

The latest example is Alibaba, which just released a high-performance processor of its own design. Alibaba’s move is significant for technological, financial, and political reasons. We’ll look into that.

Also, you’d think that the people building autonomous vehicles are using sound design principles.
