The safety driver may be the only person in the vehicle. Time between subsequent safety driver actions may be extending. Ensuring that safety drivers can maintain their vigilance in reduced workload is important.

Thoughts on the Chronology

2017
Waymo etc were aiming to go to level 4
GM were looking to go to Level 4 via level 2 & 3
Uber Crash Happened March 2018
Industry paradigm shift not just for Uber but Waymo and GM
August 6th SEE analyst/Institution meeting/ New Chaiman Jack Boyer
Real miles Data seriously lacking /Edge cases void revealed
Whole industry now focused on Level 4.
Industry recognises SEE Fleet real Data vital for L4 move
SEE acknowledge real Data supremcy and Pivots from Fleet Guardian supply-Fit/ Data focus to Auto/ Fleet Data only focus
SEE offer BdMS. Semicast expect 100% of Market.
Big players accelerate Level 4 strategy. BdMS / VAST
GM/Honda Toyota/SoftBank announce investment partnership.

Thanks Lewbo.

I get the sense from some of the info I posted yesterday that sismic moves are afoot .

Does anyone have a view on how the Data from BdMS might be shared between client and SEE. Would it be right to imagine for example that each company will want it's own data collected from it's own fleets and SEE will have access to that across multiple fleets? giving it a deep and (Vast) valuable Data pool or will it be unable to collate due to restrictive contracts?

Do SEE have the IP leverage to dictate the terms around Data share/ownership etc?

In the first Video I posted Lawrence Burns talked of a 10 year window. Take that, mix it together with the intensification/announcement of the Honda/ GM/ Cruise partnership where they talk about exploring Global opportunities and Manufacturing in High volumes, then add that the whole industry including the autonomous grandees Waymo having had to step back, rewrite their assumptions and install Driver Monitoring as Real world driving showed Simulation it was the Daddy all along. I see this all as further ratcheting up of the Data gold rush which I believe/hope SEE are well placed and supports what Mr Semicast has been writing about.

I made the Goodbye Amati observation on Tuesday when they went missing off the list after having bought 36,000,000 a month or 2 earlier.

My read is they are back listed again and still holding 31,150,000 having sold 4,850,000.
