  • Bias Host

    Everything Tesla does is bad everything everyone else does good. The host is incredibly biased against Tesla. It seems that he is one of those pseudo-journalist who produce a whole Lotta crap that Tesla shorts will consume and I can make money that way. Pretty much the same business model of Fox News.

  • Good content, but the presentation

    I find it hard to get past the inarticulate presentation of some of the principal contributors. How many times can the word "like" appear in a sentence? Three, four? That is a symptom of a general difficulty in presenting arguments.

    There are important ideas here, I think.

    Listening as I write this, I just heard "like, like, just like". What exactly does that add to the argument? Did no one at school or college suggest that this was a problem?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#365: How To Insure Autonomous Vehicles w/Steve Miller of Hub International
Q: Is there a point where aspirational pricing gives way to data-driven risk pricing, and how long might that take?
It will take more than a year and less than 50 years to move from aspirational narratives to robust actuarial data; the industry is gradually gaining credibility as more comprehensive data accrues from diverse AV and non-AV deployments.
#365: How To Insure Autonomous Vehicles w/Steve Miller of Hub International
Q: As software updates make the 'driver' different over time, how can insurers model and price that evolving risk?
Insurers need to blend simulated data with on-road data and require transparent communication about updates, including who is in the decision-making room (CTO, operations, regulatory, attorneys) to map the incremental risk and adjust coverage accordingly.
#365: How To Insure Autonomous Vehicles w/Steve Miller of Hub International
Q: How did Drive AI fit into the early approach to insuring autonomous driving, and what did you learn from those early days?
Early on, carriers filed their rates with states and relied on human-driven rate structures; insurers learned to adapt to a novel risk by engaging deeply with the operational realities, use of safety drivers, and the need to demonstrate credible risk management as AV tech matured.
#362: It’s Electric w/Founder Tiya Gordon
Q: How do you approach reliability and payment methods for users?
Charges can be transacted via app or tap-to-pay, with vehicle-to-grid integrations in development; the aim is to provide seamless, consistent experiences similar to private charging solutions.
#362: It’s Electric w/Founder Tiya Gordon
Q: What challenges have you faced with human behavior and neighborhood acceptance?
Acceptance varies; some neighbors welcome chargers, others protest; the team uses branding and community engagement to alleviate concerns and emphasizes that chargers save money and boost local amenities.
