Declining birth rates, ageing populations and good infrastructure allow many to now focus on the environmentU of T AI research star Raquel Urtasun raises US$83.5-million for self-driving startup four months after leaving Uber SEAN SILCOFF > TECHNOLOGY REPORTER PUBLISHED JUNE 8, 2021 One of the world's leading autonomous vehicle researchers, University of Toronto computer science professor Raquel Urtasun, has raised US$83.5-million for her three-month-old self-driving technology startup, one of the largest inaugural venture financings of a woman-led Canadian startup. She's also impressed investors with a differentiated strategy. Dr. Urtasun plans to build a system that teaches itself to drive in any condition and scenario within a simulated environment using Al techniques including deep learning, probabilistic inference and complex optimization. The system would eventually be subject to real-life road tests. But the synthetic build-out will advance Waabi's technology in a faster, cheaper and safer way than other approaches that require heavy capital, much real-world drive testing and tinkering, she said. Raquel Urlasun, an Al scientist and professor all the University of Toronto, has raised US$83.5-million for waabi her three-month-old self-driving technology startup, one of the largest inaugural venture financings of a woman-led Canadian startup.
