We have actual proof this isn’t true. Waymo is light years ahead of Tesla despite spending less.

Tesla is spending upwards of $6B/year to Waymo’s $1.5B. Only one of these companies makes an autonomous robotaxi that’s actually autonomous.



Yes, but how much of that is due to the lidar vs camera choice?


It still infuriates me that Tesla went so long being able to call their feature “auto pilot.“ Then they had the audacity to call it user error when people thought the car would automatically pilot itself.
