It's at last been uncovered the amount Google has spent on creating self-driving autos: in any event $1.1 billion.

As per IEEE Specrtum, each number Bananzadeh gave amid the affidavit was redacted to secure Waymo's secret business data, aside from the most vital one - the great aggregate. 'The computation that was the premise of the $1.1 billion cost gauge for Trade Secret 90 is a similar figuring that was improved the situation Trade Secret 2 and Trade Secret 25?' one of Uber's legal advisors inquired.

Bananzadeh answered: 'My comprehension is that it is a cost that catches the whole program spend from commencement to the timeframe where it stops.'
