Why China Is Testing Its Autonomous Cars On U.S. Roads
Chinese companies are aggressively developing autonomous vehicles. In August, the country announced that it had issued 16,000 test licenses for driverless cars and opened around 20,000 miles of roads in China for autonomous vehicle testing. But China-based autonomous vehicle companies have also quietly been testing their technology on U.S. streets. AV companies Didi, WeRide, Pony.ai, Baidu and AutoX logged over 1.6 million test miles in California between 2017 and 2023, gathering valuable data to train their autonomous vehicle algorithms. These same companies also established research labs in northern California, right alongside many U.S. companies working on driverless car technology. But now, the U.S. government has proposed a ban on Chinese and Russian connected vehicles due to national security concerns, putting the future operations of these companies in the U.S. into question.

Magic Leap has been working on its technology to mix computer-generated images with the real world mostly in private for seven years, with backing from Google, Alibaba and other powerhouses. Now, the first product is finally here, and CNBC’s Todd Haselton got to try it. Here’s what he learned.
Magic Leap has been shrouded in mystery since its inception seven years ago.
The company has spent almost a decade working on technology that superimposes computer-generated images over the real world in your field of vision. It has raised more than $2.3 billion from powerhouses such as Alphabet’s Google, Alibaba, Saudi Arabia and J.P. Morgan. Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai sits on the board. The company and its founder have been the subject of glowing coverage from publications like Wired and Forbes. And all of this — the money and the press — came before Magic Leap had ever showed its product to the general public.
Now the product is here. It’s called the Magic Leap One Creator’s Edition, and I had a chance to see if it lived up to the hype.
It costs $2,295. That’s a lot, but it’s not being sold to consumers just yet. Instead, Magic Leap will sell it to people who the company hopes will build more apps and games for the device.
Until now, only partners, celebrities and other VIPs had seen Magic Leap’s technology. CNBC was invited to be among the first to see the final product.

AMD is one of the best performing chip stocks of 2026, following a decade-long comeback in data center chips. Now, it’s making its biggest competitive move against Nvidia yet. AMD’s first rack-scale system for AI, Helios, is shipping later this year – and it’s the world’s first competitor to Nvidia’s Grace Blackwell and Vera Rubin systems. Now, Microsoft has signed up to use Helios in its data centers, joining other customers Meta, OpenAI and Oracle. But with a price tag of at least $5 million, analysts estimate Helios will cost at least $1 million more than Nvidia Vera Rubin. CNBC got an exclusive first look inside the 7,000 pound behemoth, and sat down with AMD data center and AI leads to ask how its first-generation AI system can compete with Nvidia – and what sets it apart.
