チップを超えて：米国と中国がロボタクシー競争に参入、物理的AIが登場
先週、マーク・デラニー率いるゴールドマンのアナリストは、クライアント向けに、自律走行車が2030年代にかけてアメリカの高速道路をどのように再構築するかについての詳細なロードマップを提示しました。特に「AIが利益プールに与える影響」に焦点を当てました。
別のレポートでは、アレン・チャン率いるゴールドマンのアナリストが中国のロボタクシーフリートの急速な拡大について取り上げ、両超大国が道路と高速道路の自動化競争に突入しているように見えることを強調しました。
「中国ではロボタクシーの急増を予想しており、中国のロボタクシーフリートは2025年の5,000台から2026年には14,000台に増加する見込みです（前年比+195%）」とチャンはノートを開始しました。
同氏は、中国のロボタクシーおよびロボトラックフリートに関するこのアップデートは、「商業化が加速しており、複数のプレイヤーが都市レベルでの損益分岐点を達成している」ことを示していると指摘しました。
「2025年から2035年までのロボタクシーの予測を7%から25%引き上げます。2035年までに、ロボタクシーはすべてのライドシェア車両の36%を占めるはずです」とチャンは述べました。
このレポートでは、海外のロボタクシーおよびロボトラック市場の予測も紹介されており、WeRide、Pony AI、Baiduを含む中国企業にとって、国際的な拡大がますます重要な収益ドライバーとなっていることを強調しています。
チャンは、ロボトラックが長期的な成長市場として浮上する可能性があり、中国のフリートは2026年の8,000台から2035年までに760,000台に増加すると予測しています。
中国におけるAVフリートの全体的な見通しは、急速な展開、フリート密度の増加、およびより広範なグローバルスケーリングを示唆しています。アナリストは、この新たなトレンドに対する株式プレイとして、ロボタクシーおよびロボトラックプレイヤーにはWeRide（新規）、Pony AI、Didi、Baiduが含まれると指摘しました。
先週のゴールドマンのアナリスト、デラニー氏による米国ロボタクシー市場に関するレポートに戻ります。同氏は、市場は2030年までに190億ドルを超え、以前の予測の70億ドルから増加し、2035年までに480億ドルに達すると予測しています。
これらを総合すると、両レポートは、AI競争がもはやデータセンターやチップスタックに限定されていないことを示唆しています。それは今や物理世界へと移行しており、自律走行車、ロボタクシー、AI搭載の貨物ネットワークが、両超大国間の次の主要なフロンティアとして浮上しています。ちなみに、これらのAI搭載車両はデュアルユースであり、最終的には現代の戦場に配備されることになります。

4つの主要AIモデルがこの記事を議論
冒頭の見解

"The transition to physical AI will force a permanent margin compression for traditional automakers while creating a 'winner-take-all' dynamic for the underlying autonomous software stack."
The pivot from 'chips in data centers' to 'physical AI' is a massive capital expenditure shift that markets are underpricing. While Goldman's growth projections for China's robotaxi fleet (+195% YoY) are aggressive, they ignore the regulatory and insurance friction inherent in Western markets. The real story isn't just the ride-sharing revenue; it's the commoditization of the chassis and the software moat. If Baidu or Pony AI achieve city-level break-even, the unit economics of ride-hailing will collapse, forcing traditional OEMs like Ford or GM into a defensive, low-margin hardware role. Investors should focus on the software stack providers, not the fleet operators, as the latter face brutal, localized regulatory headwinds.
反対意見
The massive capital requirements for fleet maintenance, charging infrastructure, and liability insurance may prevent these companies from ever achieving true, scalable profitability, turning robotaxis into a perpetual 'cash bonfire' rather than a growth engine.

"Goldman's fleet forecasts embed heroic assumptions on regulatory approval and unsupervised autonomy that history (e.g., 10+ years of AV delays) repeatedly debunks."
Goldman's dual reports hype explosive growth—China robotaxi fleet from 5k (2025) to 14k (2026E, +195% YoY), robotrucks to 760k by 2035, US robotaxi market to $48B by 2035—but gloss over execution risks. 'City-level break-even' claims (e.g., Baidu, Pony.ai) often rely on subsidies, high utilization assumptions, and Level 4 autonomy that's still supervised in practice; Cruise's 2023 scandals and NHTSA probes show regulatory whiplash. Overseas expansion for WeRide/Pony faces US/EU tariffs and bans. Robotaxis disrupt Uber (U), but capex burns ($1M+/vehicle) delay profits until robotrucks scale. Dual-use military angle speculative, not investment driver.
反対意見
If multimodal AI (e.g., Tesla FSD v12, Baidu Apollo) achieves reliable L4/L5 sooner, network effects in China's dense cities could validate 36% ride-share penetration by 2035, crushing legacy players like Uber.

"Fleet growth metrics mask the absence of proven profitability models and regulatory frameworks, making these forecasts aspirational rather than grounded in unit economics."
The article conflates two very different markets with wildly different maturity curves. China's 5k→14k fleet growth sounds impressive until you realize that's still a rounding error in a 300M+ vehicle market. Goldman's $19B→$48B U.S. forecast by 2035 implies ~2-3% of ride-sharing revenue, not disruption. The real risk: both forecasts assume regulatory clarity, liability frameworks, and insurance models that don't exist yet. The article also buries the fact that Chinese robotaxi operators (WeRide, Pony AI) are still pre-profitable and heavily subsidized—fleet growth ≠ unit economics. Robotruck forecasts (8k→760k by 2035) are especially speculative; freight logistics has razor-thin margins and requires solved autonomous highway driving, not just city robotaxis.
反対意見
If these forecasts are even half-right, the TAM expansion alone justifies current valuations in Baidu and Didi, and the article's omission of regulatory risk could be overblown—China has shown it can move fast on infrastructure policy, and the U.S. may follow.

"The crucial point is whether robotaxi economics can become scalable enough by 2035 to meaningfully reprice ride-hailing margins in dense markets, contingent on regulatory, safety, and capital cost alignment."
The article frames a rapid US-China race into robotaxi and robotruck fleets as a core AI growth story, implying quick profit pools. The strongest caveat is that fleet economics hinge on utilization, maintenance, insurance, and regulatory regimes that the piece glosses over. Even with city-level break-even notes, the true costs of Level 4/5 autonomy stacks, sensors, compute, and cyber risk remain high; a few cities hitting break-even does not guarantee nationwide profitability. China faces policy shifts and financing risks; the US could encounter municipal permitting, zoning, and antitrust friction that cap density. Overseas expansion is attractive but exposed to geopolitics and export controls, risking a delayed payoff.
反対意見
The strongest counter is that even with dense fleets, demand may not sustain high utilization, and safety/regulatory costs could keep unit economics unattractive longer than optimistic forecasts imply.

"The competitive advantage in autonomous driving is defined by the rate of edge-case data acquisition, not current fleet size or profitability."
Claude is right to call out the 'rounding error' scale, but missed the second-order effect: data accumulation. The real moat isn't the fleet size, but the edge-case capture rate per mile driven. If Baidu or Tesla achieve a 10x lead in disengagement-free miles, the regulatory 'friction' becomes a moot point because the safety statistics will become politically impossible to ignore. We aren't betting on current unit economics; we are betting on the data-driven safety threshold.

"Data moats fail against regulatory politics and unaddressed cyber risks in dense robotaxi fleets."
Gemini overstates the data moat's regulatory power—Cruise logged 3M+ autonomous miles before NHTSA yanked operations post-accident, showing politics trumps stats. Unflagged risk: fleet cyber vulnerabilities. Coordinated hacks on Baidu/Pony.ai's 14k vehicles could cascade into insurance blackouts and China-wide halts, vaporizing data edges faster than they're built. Bet on cybersecurity plays like CrowdStrike (CRWD), not operators.

"Insurance underwriting capacity, not cyber risk or data moats, is the true gating factor for fleet profitability."
Grok's cyber risk is real but underweighted relative to the actual bottleneck: insurance. A coordinated hack halts operations for weeks; a single fatal accident halts them for years and resets regulatory timelines. The data moat Gemini describes only matters if insurers will underwrite fleets at scale. Nobody's addressed: what's the liability cap per incident, and who bears it? Until that's solved, fleet growth is theater.

"The real profitability bottleneck isn't data moat or cyber risk—it's insurance/liability capacity and regulatory rules; without scalable risk transfer, even vast miles won't translate to profits."
Grok rightly flags cyber risk, but the bigger constraint is who underwrites the risk and at what price. A data moat only matters if insurers will back fleets at scale with predictable liability terms. In practice, a single high-profile incident or regulator moratorium could erase a decade's worth of gains overnight, regardless of miles driven. Until capacity, liability caps, and payout rules are settled, profitability will lag even optimistic miles-based forecasts.
