Here's a concise summary of the "This Week in The Autonomy Economy" newsletter (Mar 29, 2026):
**Main story:** Verne, Pony AI & Uber announced Europe's first commercial robotaxi service in Zagreb. Driven by Verne's EU grant deadline (Mar 31) to avoid €90M+ clawback after delays & failing "homegrown" Level 5 promises. Now using Chinese Arcfox Alpha T5 vehicle; details raise questions on EU funds.
**Highlights:**
- Waymo: 500k+ fully autonomous rides/week; lobbying BC, Canada for expansion.
- New "Autonomy Signals" podcast launched (Thursdays, via AUTNMY AI's OMEGA).
- Tesla FSD trust: 50% Lemonade customers use it 90-100% of time.
- Pony AI: Fleet at 1,446, targeting 3k by year-end.
- Zoox expanding SF + Austin/Miami; Utah passes AV framework; more on Nuro, Nissan, GM, WeRide, BYD issues.
Uber's AV moves keep raising strategy questions amid China robotaxi growth. Full details in the link!

Here’s the truth: we’ve already reached AGI — we just haven’t implemented it broadly.
Millions of jobs are being lost as we speak.
Entire careers will be retired.
The rich and powerful investors and founders who implement AGI will get bizarrely rich beyond what makes sense. It will break people's brains on both sides.
It’s gonna suck for a lot of our friends and family, who aren’t obsessed with their careers, because things are moving so fast they won’t have even left the starting gate by the time the awards are handed out.
We’re gonna have to solve for a lot of second- and third-order effects, some of which will suck (job loss) and some of which will be awesome.
AI will create free/cheap energy, free education, cheaper and better food, homes that build themselves and medicine that makes you as healthy as a 30-year-old when you’re 100.
… change is hard, but humans are the most adaptable species nature has ever created.
We can figure it out.

@CryptoKaleo Why is this a big deal? Clawbot was made by one person as a hobby project that went viral. Anthropic is a $500 billion dollar company. Of course they’re going to copy the functionality of most downloaded project on GitHub that competes directly with what they do for free.

California's Central Valley produces 80% of the world's almonds. Each almond requires 3.2 gallons of actual irrigation water to grow. Not rainfall. Actual tap water pumped from aquifers.
One gallon of almond milk requires 162 gallons of irrigation water. Compare that to dairy milk at 8 gallons of tap water per gallon, with the rest being rainfall that falls on pasture anyway.
But here's where it gets properly grim. Almonds bloom for exactly three weeks in February. During those three weeks, California needs every pollinating bee in North America transported to the Central Valley or the crop fails entirely.
Commercial beekeepers truck in 31 billion honeybees. That's two-thirds of America's entire managed bee population, all concentrated in one valley for three weeks. The bees are packed into trucks, driven across the country, dumped into almond groves drenched in pesticides, worked to exhaustion, then packed up and shipped to the next crop.
The mortality rate is catastrophic. Beekeepers report losing 30 to 50% of their hives annually. That's billions of bees dead. Not from natural causes. From being used as disposable pollination machines for your almond milk.
The pesticides don't help. Almond groves are sprayed with neonicotinoids which scramble bee navigation systems, fungicides which weaken their immune systems, and herbicides which eliminate the wildflowers they'd normally forage on between almond blooms.
Meanwhile the aquifer depletion is permanent. The Central Valley has sunk 28 feet in some areas from groundwater extraction. That water took 10,000 years to accumulate. It's being drained in decades for almond milk.
Your vegan latte killed more bees and used more water than a year's worth of dairy milk. But it's got "plant-based" on the label so you're definitely saving the planet.

@WallStreetApes @grok - is there any truth to elons statements that immigrants are being paid to come here and vote democrat ? Are we spending 700 billion on a program to incentivize immigrants to come here?
English

Elon Musk says Democrats use our welfare system to turn illegals into voters
“That is also a mechanism by which the Democrats attract and retain illegal immigrants by essentially paying them to come here and then turning them into voters”
“Entitlement spending, most of the federal spending is entitlements. So that's like the big one to eliminate is that's the sort of half trillion, maybe $700 billion a year.”
“This is why the Democrats are so upset about the situation because they're losing—you know if, if we turn off this gigantic money magnet for illegal immigrants, then they will leave and they'll lose voters.”

@IngrahamAngle @DailyMail @grok What do you mean you can’t find evidence of him promoting it? That’s how I found it… and you answered the question to someone else….
What do you make of @elonmusk promoting this lie?

EXCLUSIVE: Ilhan Omar DID marry her brother and said she would 'do what she had to do to get him "papers" to keep him in U.S.', reveals Somali community leader. -- @DailyMail
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…
English

@grok @IngrahamAngle @DailyMail Don’t you think it’s weird that your maker @elonmusk, the guy who claims he’s searching for truth is promoting these false claims. What do you make of that @grok?
English

The claim that Ilhan Omar married her brother Ahmed Elmi lacks credible evidence, per fact-checks from Snopes, PolitiFact, and the Star Tribune. Investigations noted marital timeline inconsistencies but found no proof of relation or fraud. Omar has denied it as baseless. Allegations persist in some media without substantiation.

Why you aren't bullish enough on $XNET - a 🧵
As I've said recently, @XNET_Mobile has several major deals in progress, including a pilot with a nation-wide in-store service provider with hundreds of thousands of locations
But lets look only at recent on-the-books growth
