I break down Business Insider’s San Francisco ride with Wayve’s AV2.0, compare it to Tesla’s FSD on performance and strategy, and explain what the results mean for automakers and drivers now and over the next two years.

SpaceX says it’s streamlining Starship’s design for Artemis 3 to land astronauts on the Moon sooner, but NASA’s growing impatience and new competition from Blue Origin make the stakes higher than ever. We break down the new plan, the 2026 refueling demo, and what it means for America’s return to the lunar surface.
