Gelonghui March 17 | Uber (UBER.US) pre-market up over 2%, trading at $76.19. According to news, NVIDIA and Uber announced plans to deploy autonomous taxi fleets first in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area in the first half of 2027. As the technology infrastructure matures, the network is expected to rapidly expand to 28 core cities across four major continents by 2028, with the goal of deploying over 100,000 L4 autonomous vehicles equipped with NVIDIA’s cutting-edge AI technology on the Uber platform.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang emphasized, “The autonomous vehicle revolution has arrived — this is the first trillion-dollar robot industry. Through NVIDIA’s Hyperion platform and the Alpamayo open inference model, we empower vehicles with three core capabilities: precise perception of the surrounding environment, intelligent reasoning of complex scenarios, and safe execution of driving decisions — laying the technological foundation for scalable L4 autonomous driving.” (Gelonghui)
