British autonomous vehicle manufacturer Wayve Technologies announces the opening of a new research and development hub in Vancouver, Canada, marking its third establishment following London and Mountain View in California. The initiative will be spearheaded by the company's Chief Scientific Officer, Jamie Shotton.
Vancouver is obviously a very international hub for North America, and highly attractive for businesses through favorable immigration policies,Jamie highlighted.
Jamie also pointed out that Wayve's AI independently masters road rules, significantly enhancing its ability to handle unexpected situations. This paves the way for immediate integration of their software into new vehicles, aligning with the company's recent ambitions.
Established in 2017 by Cambridge University PhDs, Wayve Technologies boasts a roster of investors including giants like Microsoft, as well as AI luminaries such as Yann LeCun, Chief AI Scientist at Meta, and Ilya Sutskever, Chief Scientist at OpenAI.
