A significant success for the

platform operator Uber
$UBER (+1,62%), Lyft
$LYFT, (+1,82%) and DoorDash
$DASH (+3,26%): The decision to launch their app-based gig workers as independent contractors remains in place.

This way of working is essential for the companies.

The ruling ends a protracted legal battle and confirms that classifying drivers as independent contractors does not violate the California Constitution.

Tesla ($TSLA (+6,49%)) originally planned to open in August
2024 their new robotaxi but has now postponed the unveiling to October
2024 has been postponed. This additional time should allow the teams to develop more prototypes to build more prototypes.

The robotaxi will be an autonomous vehicle that may not even no steering wheel steering wheel. It should be cheaper than conventional cabs and transportation services such as Uber ($UBER (+1,62%)) and Lyft ($LYFT (+1,82%)) because it does not require a human driver. Despite the high expectations, there are still many unanswered questions about this robotaxi, such as its exact designhow it works and how it will be positioned on the market. Tesla's autonomous driving technology uses cameras instead of laser sensors (lidar), which is also controversial.

The safest alternative would be to change the infrastructure.
Milling magnetic strips into the road in which the vehicle can log in via an app.
Here, the vehicle is connected to the road via magnetism.
Vulnerability would be very low and the number of very vulnerable sensors and cameras would be greatly reduced.
