Note that while Tesla has started taking $20,000 reservations for its semi, there&amp;#39;s no indication of when it will make it to production.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Christian covers the progress that Joby Aviation is making with its eVTOL program and the challenges it faces with trying to get FAA certification for this very new type of aircraft. Finally, Sam dives into expanding pilot deployments of actual driverless automated vehicles with Argo AI this week launching driver-out operations in Miami and Austin. Note that Tesla vehicles still cannot operate as robotaxis and may not ever reach that threshold.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Links&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.forbes.com/sites/samabuelsamid/2022/05/17/argo-ai-begins-driverless-testing-in-austin-and-miami/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Argo launches driverless testing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.flyingmag.com/joby-aviation-no-type-certification-delays-expected-from-faas-modified-approach/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Joby Aviation aims for certification, entry into service by 2024&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://insideevs.com/news/585792/freightliner-ecascadia-production-model-debuts-230-mile-range/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Daimler begins eCascadia production&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.freightwaves.com/news/record-order-for-freightliner-electric-trucks&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Sysco orders 800 eCascadia trucks&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
