Waymo Becomes Stanford Athletics’ Official On-Campus Autonomous Ride-Hailing Partner

Stanford Athletics and Waymo announced a first-of-its-kind partnership making Waymo the official autonomous ride-hailing partner for Stanford, with Waymo’s driverless service rolling out on campus for events at the Oval and Museum Way and limited routes on non-event days to the Oval and Stanford Visitor Center; two additional stops at Escondido Village and the Visitor Center were added, and the Museum Way location operates five hours before and two hours after large events. Riders can plan with the Waymo app or Stanford’s searchable map and provide feedback via QR codes as the program is evaluated for mobility and accessibility improvements across campus, supported by Elevate.”,

Nvidia rethinks OpenAI bet as $100B plan stalls

The Wall Street Journal reports Nvidia’s plan to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI has stalled as executives question the deal; Jensen Huang says the $100B figure was never a binding commitment, and Nvidia wants to avoid being seen as overly dependent on OpenAI or paying an “OpenAI valuation tax.” Nvidia will still participate in OpenAI’s current funding round (potentially the largest investment it’s ever made), but there has been little progress since September as the two firms reassess the partnership amid competition from Google and Anthropic.

Nvidia’s OpenAI Investment Plan Hits Hurdle as Doubts Mount

Nvidia’s plan to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI to help train and run its AI models has stalled amid internal doubts, with discussions reportedly shifting toward a multi‑billion equity stake rather than a single upfront commitment. CEO Jensen Huang has privately noted the original deal was non-binding and voiced concerns about OpenAI’s business discipline and competitive pressure from Google and Anthropic, even as other giants like Amazon pursue OpenAI funding while OpenAI aims to raise up to $100 billion at a roughly $830 billion valuation.
