Hans Küng was only 34 years of age when a visit to the United States firmly established him as the leading theologian of the time. In February 1963, between the first and second sessions of the Second Vatican Council, he began an eight-week tour by addressing an audience of 3,000 in the gymnasium of Boston College. He went on to lecture at Harvard, Yale, the University of Chicago (audience of 5,000), Gonzaga University, the University of California in Los Angeles and elsewhere. An audience of 8,500 heard him speak at the University of St Louis, where he received the first honorary doctorate of his career.

He oversaw the launch of the US s first robotaxi service.
He also landed partnerships with Fiat Chrysler, Jaguar Land Rover, and Daimler.
When John Krafcik became the CEO of Google s self-driving-car division in 2015, it was an expensive science project. Now the unit, renamed Waymo in 2016, is a fledgling business with paying customers, an estimated valuation of $30 billion, and a clear lead over its competitors.
But now Krafcik is stepping down from Waymo, leaving the task of trying to make the company a ride-hailing and logistics giant to his successors, new co-CEOs Tekedra Mawakana and Dmitri Dolgov. To do that, they ll have to build on the groundwork Krafcik laid.
