#341: Boris Sofman of Bedrock Robotics

Update: 2025-07-31

Description

Former Waymo self-driving truck lead and Anki co-founder Boris Sofman joins The Autonocast to talk about his new company, Bedrock Robotics, and why autonomous construction equipment might be the most important, least-hyped application of AV tech yet. Kirsten and Alex dig into why he left the public-road race, what makes construction sites a uniquely promising environment for autonomy, and how lessons from Waymo and Anki are shaping his approach to this new frontier.
