For starters, Waymo reported 1 disengagement per 29,944 miles driven in 2020 to the California DMV [1], while in the talk, Karpathy implies that a Tesla being able to drive around the SF area for 2 hours without a disengagement is unusual. Note that Tesla didn't file a disengagement report because they didn't do any autonomous testing on public roads in California in 2020.
There are issues with reading too much into disengagements, but there certainly seems to be a large difference here.
