A video has emerged online that shows two Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Waymo robotaxis crashing into each other in Phoenix, Arizona.

Why It Matters: The news comes as autonomous driving in the U.S. is gathering steam, with Morgan Stanley releasing a report that states the sector could be worth <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46680128/self-driving-cars-could-be-200-billion-market-by-2030-says-morgan-stanley">$200 billion by the year 2030</a>.
The news of the crash also comes as Tesla CEO Elon Musk had taken <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46654625/elon-musk-reacts-sarcastically-about-lidar-as-waymo-attempts-head-on-collision-blocks-traffic-what-do-i-know-about-technology">a sarcastic jibe</a> at Waymo and LiDAR technology after a video had emerged of a Waymo vehicle purportedly almost driving into another car on the road.
Elsewhere, Tesla has reportedly rolled out its Robotaxi operations in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46747282/teslas-robotaxi-is-now-live-in-the-san-francisco-bay-area-serves-a-larger-area-compared-to-waymo">the San Francisco Bay Area</a>, with its serviceable area being larger than what Waymo currently operates in.
However, there could also be increased scrutiny from the government, with President Donald Trump's nominee for the NHTSA administrator role, Jonathan Morrison, having called for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46434613/elon-musks-tesla-could-face-stricter-oversight-as-trumps-nhtsa-pick-targets-autonomous-driving-cannot-sit-back"> tougher oversight</a> on autonomous vehicles.

Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya highlighted energy constraints as the primary barrier to artificial intelligence expansion, responding to concerns about Meta Platforms Inc.

Palihapitiya wrote on X Wednesday that &#8220;Energy is the big bottle neck for AI,&#8221; outlining systemic constraints facing the industry. The venture capitalist detailed how physical and software AI require fundamental recipe changes beyond ingredient modifications.
&#8220;We need infinite and marginally costless energy,&#8221; Palihapitiya stated, emphasizing solar plus storage as the only viable near-term solution given 12-17 month deployment timelines.

Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) is emerging as the dominant force in the rapidly expanding smart glasses market, powering designs for major players including Meta, Oakley, Ray-Ban, and Xiaomi.
Check out the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/QCOM">price of QCOM over here</a>.
What Happened: This strong position has led Ray Wang, Research Director for Semiconductors at Futurum Group, to declare Qualcomm the &#8220;biggest beneficiary&#8221; for AI/smart glasses, asserting that their technology is the &#8220;best one for now.&#8221;
This strategic focus on next-generation personal AI devices, coupled with robust <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46737581/qualcomm-q3-earnings-double-beat-auto-revenue-hits-record">third-quarter 2025 earnings</a>, underscores Qualcomm&#8217;s successful diversification beyond traditional mobile chipsets.

While overall performance was strong, a key highlight from the earnings call transcript was the significant traction in the XR (Extended Reality) segment. Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon platform is the preferred choice for smart glasses and mixed reality devices, boasting 19 designs from global partners.
The demand for Meta Platforms Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) AI smart glasses, in particular, has exceeded expectations, leading to an expanded portfolio with new Meta Oakley and Ray-Ban styles, all powered by Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 platform. Xiaomi&#8217;s new AI glasses, also running on Snapdragon, have been well-received.
CEO Cristiano Amon emphasized the accelerated advancement of AI and generative AI, noting its role in redefining the mobile industry and fostering the emergence of new personal AI devices like smart watches, earbuds, and smart glasses.
These devices, he stated, are evolving independently of smartphones to provide unique personalized AI and agentic use cases, leveraging Snapdragon&#8217;s connectivity, power efficiency, and advanced sensing capabilities.

Why It Matters: Beyond smart glasses, Qualcomm&#8217;s diversification is evident in its strong Automotive and IoT segments, which saw year-over-year revenue increases of 21% and 24% respectively, in the third quarter. The company is targeting $22 billion in combined revenues from these sectors by 2029, reinforcing its long-term growth trajectory.
Furthermore, Qualcomm is making a significant push into the data center market, including the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/25/06/45832102/qualcomm-bets-2-4-billion-on-alphawave-to-power-ai-data-centers">acquisition of AlphaWave IP</a> and ongoing advanced discussions with a leading hyperscaler, with projected revenues in this new area commencing in fiscal 2028. 
The chipmaker reported better-than-expected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46737581/qualcomm-q3-earnings-double-beat-auto-revenue-hits-record">third-quarter</a> revenue of $10.365 billion, up 10% year-over-year, beating the street consensus estimate of $10.333 billion. The earnings per share of $2.77 beat a consensus estimate of $2.71. 
However, its stock fell as the phone-related sales rose 7% to $6.33 billion, lower than the analyst estimate of $6.48 billion, according <a href="https://news.bloombergtax.com/international-trade/qualcomm-gives-upbeat-sales-outlook-in-positive-sign-for-phones">to</a> Bloomberg.
Price Action: QCOM shares slid 5.00% in after-hours on Wednesday. The stock was up 3.53% year-to-date and down 12.10% over the past year.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings indicate that QCOM maintains a weak momentum across the short, medium, and long term. However, the stock scores well on quality rankings. Additional performance details are available here.

Check out how <a href="http://v">CLFT stock is trading here</a>.
What Happened: Confluent, a California-based data streaming platform, has announced a $200 million investment aimed at expanding its global partner ecosystem. This investment is expected to enable partners to tap into the burgeoning $100 billion market opportunity driven by the increasing demand for data streaming platforms.

Kamal Brar, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Independent Software Vendor (ISV) and Asia-Pacific (APAC) at Confluent, said, "The opportunity ahead is massive, and we believe it will be defined by those who can move and build together.&#8221;
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CFLT">Benzinga Pro</a> data, CFLT stock continued to drop to $19.22 during the after-hours trading session on Wednesday, following a 2.11% decline to close at $26.40 during the regular session.
Why It Matters: The drop in Confluent&#8217;s stock value comes on the heels of a significant investment announcement and second-quarter financial report. While Confluent posted strong growth in subscription revenue of $271 million, a 21% increase from last year and cloud revenue of $151 million, up 28%, and continued to improve margins and cash flow, the steep decline in stock price suggests investors&#8217; concern regarding modest third-quarter outlook — which guided subscription revenue of $281–$282 million and earnings per share of $0.09–$0.10.
Despite the drop in stock value, Confluent&#8217;s CEO and Co-Founder, Ethan Chan, emphasized the importance of the company&#8217;s technology and expertise in providing a high-performance data backbone for its partners.&nbsp;
Confluent&#8217;s stock value change also coincided with a series of fluctuations in the IT sector, with several IT stocks experiencing significant shifts in the after-hours trading on the same day.
