General Motors&#8217; (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38426856/gm-unveils-plans-for-autonomous-driving-unit-cruise-relaunch-after-hiatus-expects-1-7b-in-expenses" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">autonomous driving unit</a>, Cruise, is abandoning its plans to build the Origin autonomous vehicle and instead focussing on using its next-generation Chevrolet Bolt for autonomous driving operations.
What Happened: Origin is an entirely autonomous vehicle with no manual controls or pedals for which GM had great plans.
However, the production of Origin is no longer in the picture, as per a letter to shareholders from GM CEO Mary Barra. 
&#8220;The Cruise team will also simplify their path to scale by focusing their next autonomous vehicle on the next-generation Chevrolet Bolt, instead of the Origin. This addresses the regulatory uncertainty we faced with the Origin because of its unique design. In addition, per-unit costs will be much lower, which will help Cruise optimize its resources,&#8221; Barra wrote on Tuesday. 
For the first half of 2024, Cruise accrued an operating loss of $1,650 million, 28% significantly higher than the loss of $1,289 million recorded in the corresponding period of last year. GM also spent $583 million on restructuring Cruise in the period. 
Cruise did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment on the expected timeline for the introduction of Bolt robotaxis.
Why It Matters: During GM's third-quarter earnings call last year, company CEO Mary Barra said the company is working with Honda Motor Co. to bring driverless rides to Tokyo in early 2027 with Origin.
"We'll do that with our Origin, the world's first-ever vehicle purpose-built for autonomous driving on public roads. As Cruise continues to push the boundaries of what AV technology can deliver society, safety is always at the forefront," Barra had said.
However, Cruise went on a downhill roll afterward. The company suspended operations in the U.S. late last year following the involvement of one of its robotaxis in an&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35052444/self-driving-cruise-car-accident-leaves-pedestrian-trapped-and-injured-in-san-francisco" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">accident in San Francisco</a>, leading to heightened regulatory scrutiny and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38606510/us-is-currently-sc-ed-ex-cruise-ceo-calls-for-manufacturing-makeover-to-win-over-chinese-auto-rivals">exit of its co-founder </a>and then CEO Kyle Vogt.

In a recent development, Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) is making significant strides in the AI stock market, posing a challenge to Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
What Happened: The report, based on recent interactions with investors in New York and Connecticut, indicates that Broadcom&#8217;s specialized AI business is gaining traction, Business Insider<a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/broadcom-vs-nvidia-ai-stock-investor-sentiment-citi-chips-avgo-2024-7"> reported</a> on Tuesday. The company has been assisting cloud giants like Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and Amazon Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) in developing customized AI chips for internal use.
&#8220;AVGO is catching up to NVDA as the top holding as AVGO has more AI customers joining (OpenAI and Bytedance) and accretion from VMware,&#8221; Citi noted. However, Broadcom&#8217;s stock still lags behind Nvidia&#8217;s, with a 79% gain in a year compared to Nvidia&#8217;s 177%.
The shift in investor sentiment towards Broadcom is significant, given Nvidia&#8217;s dominance in the AI stock market. Other semiconductor companies, including NXP Semiconductors and Advanced Analog Devices, are also seeing increased investor interest due to expected inventory replenishments.

Despite a mixed sentiment, Citi maintains a positive outlook on the semiconductor sector, stating, &#8220;We remain wildly bullish on semis.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Broadcom is targeting a massive artificial intelligence (AI)<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39793230/broadcom-has-over-150b-of-ai-silicon-opportunity-over-next-5-years-says-analyst"> silicon market opportunity</a>, worth over $150 billion in the next five years. This positions the tech giant for significant growth, both in the near term and long term.
Broadcom&#8217;s dominance in the $5-7 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39354599/broadcoms-cutting-edge-ai-networking-technology-leaves-nvidia-marvell-cisco-behind-">data center/AI Ethernet switching</a> and routing chipset market, with a commanding 80% market share. This dominance is largely due to its relentless innovation.
Despite Broadcom&#8217;s progress, Nvidia could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39765205/nvidia-could-be-worth-nearly-50-trillion-in-a-decade-says-early-tesla-amazon-investor-nearly-2x-">achieve a market capitalization </a>of nearly $50 trillion within the next decade, according to tech investor James Anderson.
Price Action: On Tuesday, Broadcom was trading 0.11% lower in the pre-market after closing at $161.06 on Monday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
