What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
Genuinely strong VLA + hardware integration and real, multi-source-confirmed BMW pilot exposure (1,250+ hrs, 90,000+ parts, 30,000+ X3 vehicles), but the home/8-hour autonomy story rests on vendor-controlled livestreams with no independent verification or published failure rates.
Next
Monitor for third-party, reset-counted task benchmarks and independent factory-deployment data (error rate per shift) rather than vendor demo reels and livestreams; revisit when Figure or a customer publishes audited per-task success/failure metrics
