To support this scale, Zipline hired three senior executives from Tesla, Waymo, and Uber. Commercial partners include Wonder, Little Caesars (expanding from 5 to 65 locations), and Chipotle. The company has flown over 135 million autonomous miles and delivered 20 million items without a safety incident. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
