About this episode

The episode discusses the competition in the robotaxi market, a proposal regarding Superannuation in Australia, and the implications of default investment options for retirement savings.

Tesla’s steering wheel-free Cybercab has hit the road, but the global robotaxi race is getting a lot more crowded, and increasingly, a lot more Chinese. Bryce and Alec unpack who’s actually leading autonomous driving, debate a proposal to let Australians divert part of their Super into their pay packets, and continue Super September by asking whether leaving your retirement savings in the default investment option could be costing you over the long run.
