Tim Cook says Apple is working on self-driving car technology

Apple is working on something related to self-driving cars, but don't expect an iCar to pick you up from work any time soon. 

In a June 5 interview with Bloomberg Television, Apple CEO Tim Cook elaborated a bit on the company's involvement in "autonomous systems." He doesn't go into detail and he does point out that Apple isn't ready to announce a self-driving car product just yet. However, Cook does admit that Apple is doing something in the space.

"And so autonomy is something that's incredibly exciting for us, and...we'll see where it takes us. We're not really saying from a product point of view what we will do, but we are being straightforward that it's a core technology that we view is very important." Read more...
