Your delivery robot is here

Marshall Ian: Hi

Michael Calor: Given today’s theme, I’m curious to know what is the most unexpected thing you both ordered through a delivery program?

Louise Matsakis: So I was recently on a press trip to China and writing during the interview and writing all my white pants. So I ordered the Chinese equivalent of the tidal pen. I think this is probably the strangest thing I’ve ever got in demand.

Marshall Ian: I am in favor of paying the delivery fees even before paying for delivery fees. I hated paying for delivery costs. I greatly respect what they do, but I prefer to spend my money in other ways. So I think I was really disappointed recently and ordered the Thai pad, and that was savage to me. So I am where I am.

Michael Calor: This is your most unexpected thing?

Marshall Ian: Yes, the fact that I used it is unexpected.

Michael Calor: Yes, I mean, I live in one of the aggressive parts of the California West Coast, and I rarely use delivery programs, but I say probably the most unexpected thing I have ever ordered is Jameson Irish bottle.

Marshall Ian: Respect

Michael Calor: This is wired Illegal valleyA show about the people, the power and influence of the Silicon Valley. Today we are talking about how the delivery program companies after years of struggle, they are still trying to deploy their robots right to your doorstep. Earlier this week, Derdash unveiled his new autonomous robot, Dot. The company says this is part of the purpose of having a combination, quotation, “work model for the upcoming delivery, human work, but drone and self -efficient vehicles in the combination.” But Derdash is not alone in your efforts to deliver your dinner by a lonely robot. The autonomous delivery industry is constantly evolving and has faced significant challenges. We discuss why some of these companies still have a lot of betting on the robots, a race to create the right technology to use them, and to have this robot fleet in our cities can make sense to all of us.
