Re:Evolution is not a tree of life but a fuzzy network

Seeing that the article was about the "Tree of Life" metaphor and Coral, it is surprising that it didn't mention that Darwin actually suggested that a "Coral of Life" metaphor was superior to a "Tree of Life" metaphor in his notebooks (or maybe I missed it?).
I'm not a biologist, but I found this paper (Podani, 2019) about the "Coral of Life" metaphor interesting: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11692-019-094...

You should check your figures. I believe Drive.ai, one of the leaders in the industry, was acquired for about $500,000 an engineer last summer. The numbers you are thinking of are more appropriate during 2016-2018 when the hype train was at full speed. Last summer there was a palpable feeling that the industry was beginning to 'consolidate'. I would not be surprised if all of the non-OEM, non-Google backed AV companies go bust soon.
