Alphabet's Waymo is integrating the Gemini AI assistant into its Ojai robotaxis for in-cabin passenger services like climate control and local recommendations. This move mirrors Tesla's recent integration of the Grok chatbot, intensifying the competition in the autonomous vehicle space beyond driving capabilities.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
In-car software is now a fight between the platform's own AI models. Your in-cabin product must now either integrate with Gemini and Grok or offer a compelling reason to exist outside them.
