Summary

We got rare access inside Applied Intuition’s commercial garage with Co-Founders CEO Qasar Younis and CTO Peter Ludwig, where they’re building AI systems that power cars, trucks, mining equipment, defense systems, and more. In a never-before-seen tour to the public, Applied Intuition showcases where/how real machines across industries are being rebuilt with AI. Valued at $15B, Applied Intuition is one of the most important companies in physical AI, powering 18 of the top 20 global automakers and deploying autonomy across automotive, trucking, construction, agriculture, and defense. Inside this garage, you’ll see: Self-driving cars, trucks, & heavy machinery Autonomous mining & construction operations Defense systems & remote-controlled fleets A unified operating system running across every machine Qasar and Peter break down how one platform can run everything from a car to a boat to a mining site, and why the future of AI is no longer just software, but systems that move the real world. This is what “atoms” looks like.
