Apple confirms that it has purchased a self-propelled car start

The latest self-image company to be consolidated is Drive.ai. The startup has been working with AI tech for autonomous vehicles for some years, but found itself little cash in an increasingly competitive market. Now, as San Francisco Chronicle reports that it filed with regulators to close, Apple bought it for an unspecified amount. However, it reports that there are still around 90 employees, while some others, including dozens of engineers and product designers, according to Axios join Apple.

We still don't have much information about Apple's Project Titan efforts that have apparently changed directions more than once. Nevertheless, crushing up the pieces of a company that already had self-driving cars on the streets should strengthen what Apple is working on.
