NVIDIA Tech Adds Real World Models To Gatik Autonomous Truck Simulator

Montage of real world scenarios generated by Gatik's Arena simulation platform for use in developing ... More and training autonomous delivery trucks. Autonomous middle-mile delivery trucking company Gatik has incorporated technology from NVIDIA to its next-generation simulation platform, providing more real-life scenarios for truck validation and development at lower cost, the company announced Tuesday. Gatik's next-generation Arena simulation platform includes NVIDIA's Cosmos World Foundation Models, which the company says produces ultra high-fidelity environment simulations in an exponentially higher number than could be generated without Cosmos. To illustrate the dramatic increase, Gatik co-founder and chief engineer Apeksha Kumavat explained that passing 10 miles of data from a customer site in Dallas, Texas through Arena without Cosmos could generate perhaps as many 100,000 miles of additional scenarios. 'As we plug in NVIDIA's Cosmos at the end of it, we are now further able to completely change the location, the geography of where we were actually testing this, for example, those 10 miles from Dallas now can be recreated on a completely different section in Toronto or in in Phoenix,' explained Kumavat, in an interview. 'All of this is high fidelity, really photorealistic simulation. So those 10 miles now have gone into millions of miles with different kinds of weather conditions.' It's an important capability for several reasons, Kumavat says. For one, a greater variety of more realistic scenarios improves and speeds development of the company's autonomous technology. Second, she points out, it eliminates the need for actual on-road testing in scenarios that might be considered too dangerous to create 'in the real world.' Some of the scenarios Arena can generate include: 'NVIDIA Cosmos has been purpose-built to accelerate world model training and accelerate physical AI development for autonomous vehicles,' said Norm Marks, NVIDIA vice president of global automotive, in a statement. 'Our collaboration with Gatik unlocks the development of safe, reliable, ultra-high-fidelity digital environments for robust AV training and validation, and is helping to accelerate the commercialization of Gatik's autonomous trucking solution at scale." Autonomous tech company Gatik and vehicle manufacturer Isuzu will team up to build autonomous ... More commercial trucks that require no on-board human. Grocery store chains Kroger and Loblaws, along with Tyson Foods and Walmart are among the biggest companies using trucks equipped with Gatik's autonomous technology to move goods on so-called middle-mile routes. Development and use of autonomous commercial trucks has picked up speed in the last five years as a way to reduce costs and deal with a driver shortage that's been lingering since before the Covid pandemic took hold in 2020. As of last summer there were more than 78,000 unfilled truck driver positions according to while a report by Ryder System Inc. notes 'industry experts predict that if trends continue, the number of unfilled positions could exceed 170,000 by 2030.' Just last week, Texas door and millwork manufacturer Steve & Sons announced a deal with autonomous tech startup Bot Auto to start running some delivery routes in that state with self-driving trucks. Companies such as Kodiak Robotics, Aurora, Einride and Plus are not only major players in autonomous commercial truck technology, they use a variety of simulation systems to improve performance, capabilities and safety. Gatik's Kumavat is especially excited about this next generation of Arena that includes NVIDIA's Cosmos World Foundation Models, which she enthuses, ' almost makes the gap between simulation and the real world testing, down to zero.'

Serve Robotics Brings Autonomous Robot Delivery to Atlanta with Uber Eats, Shake Shack and Local Favorites

ATLANTA , June 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Serve Robotics Inc. ('Serve') (Nasdaq: SERV), a leading autonomous sidewalk delivery company, today announced the launch of its service in the Atlanta metro area. This market expansion builds on the company's successful launches in Los Angeles, Miami, and Dallas–Fort Worth as part of Serve's ongoing collaboration with Uber Eats, the delivery platform of Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE: UBER). In recent weeks, Serve's autonomous delivery robots have rolled onto the sidewalks of Midtown, Old Fourth Ward and Downtown Atlanta, bringing sustainable and safe high-tech convenience to over 50,000 Atlantans. The robots are integrated into the Uber Eats app, and customers who order from participating local favorites such as Rreal Tacos and Ponko Chicken may have their next meal delivered by a Serve robot. Serve's national delivery partnership with Shake Shack Inc. (NYSE: SHAK) will also extend to Atlanta. 'As one of the largest and fastest-growing markets in the Southeast, Atlanta is a strategic next step for our planned nationwide expansion,' said Dr. Ali Kashani, CEO and co-founder of Serve Robotics. 'We are pleased to be one of the first robotics companies to enter the market and bring our friendly approach to robotic delivery.' Known as the 'Silicon Peach,' Atlanta is a growing tech hub and a community driven by innovation. Atlanta is a largely car-dependent city, and Serve's robots are expected to reduce traffic congestion, making last-mile deliveries more efficient and emission-free. Serve has proactively established constructive relationships with local stakeholders to ensure a seamless rollout. Serve's growth will generate new employment opportunities in operations and maintenance and help stimulate the local economy. 'We're thrilled to be one of the first in Atlanta to have our food delivered by Serve Robotics.

Zacks Investment Ideas feature highlights: Serve Robotics, Uber Technologies and Nvidia

Chicago, IL – June 6, 2025 – Today, Zacks Investment Ideas feature highlights Serve Robotics Inc. SERV, Uber Technologies UBER and Nvidia NVDA. Few investors have even heard of Serve Robotics Inc., yet the coming weeks could push this micro-cap onto every AI and robotics watch-list. Spun out of Uber Technologies in 2021, the company's bright-blue sidewalk robots have already logged tens of thousands of autonomous deliveries, but the real inflection point is just ahead. Management has begun a nationwide roll-out with Uber Eats, most recently adding the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, and is racing toward a contractual goal of deploying 2,000 units before year-end. SERV stock has been on a rocky path over the last two years, marked by fits of big rallies, selloffs and high volatility. But now, it appears the catalysts are aligning. Along with the Uber rollout, Serve sales growth is expected to inflect significantly higher in the coming quarters, while the stock price is building powerful momentum. With the robotics theme really grabbing attention in the last couple of weeks, and the technology suddenly gaining practical application, Serve Robotics Inc. stock may be about to take off. Although Serve Robotics still operates at a loss, sales are expected to meaningfully pick up over the next year. Current year sales are forecast to come in around $5 million, while next year is expected to jump 670% to $41.2 million. However, with the unprecedented opportunity ahead in the robotics industry, even those forecasts could be understated. Notably, Serve Robotics is hosting an annual meeting on June 12th, which could mark a major announcement and add to the upside catalysts in the stock. I began writing about the opportunities in robotics stocks just a couple of weeks ago as the theme is quickly picking up steam. While high-profile names like Nvidia are the obvious plays, lesser-known companies like Serve Robotics offer investors a non-consensus way to capture more asymmetric upside in this rapidly evolving space. That said, Nvidia remains a core opportunity. The company has made its ambitions in robotics clear, aiming to dominate the category just as it has in artificial intelligence. Its expanding microprocessor platform is designed to power everything from warehouse bots to autonomous delivery systems, placing Nvidia at the center of the AI-robotics-automation nexus. Meanwhile, Uber Technologies has quietly become one of the most forward-thinking players in automation. Through its partnership with Serve Robotics for sidewalk delivery and its growing relationship with Waymo on the ride-hailing front, Uber is leveraging cutting-edge technology to redefine logistics. As I have noted, SERV stock has really begun to pick up steam in the last couple of months. After bottoming in early April, along with the broader market, the stock has gone on a quick 130% run. Over the last few days, SERV has been forming a clear technical bull flag, highlighting a potentially opportune time to start buying the stock. If it can trade materially above the $12.30 level, it would signal a technical breakout, and could lead to another sustained bull run. Serve Robotics Inc. isn't for the faint of heart. As a small-cap stock with limited liquidity and a short trading history, SERV has been prone to dramatic price swings. However, for those who can stomach the ups and downs, SERV may represent one of the most compelling high-risk, high-reward opportunities in the AI and robotics space. The company is targeting a real, tangible use case, last-mile delivery, and is executing alongside a blue-chip partner in Uber Technologies. Sales growth is accelerating, momentum is building, and investor awareness is only just beginning to catch up. In a market hungry for the next big breakthrough, Serve Robotics offers something rare: early-stage exposure to a real-world robotics deployment with massive scaling potential. For speculative investors looking to ride the next wave of automation, this stock may be worth a serious look. Since 2000, our top stock-picking strategies have blown away the S&P's +7.7% average gain per year. Amazingly, they soared with average gains of +48.4%, +50.2% and +56.7% per year.
