The difference is the student driver will learn within a few more dozen hours and be fit for the road, Tesla no silver lining on the horizon.

  You have it backwards. With humans driving there is a constant and unending stream of student drivers, because every new human must learn from scratch. There is no silver lining. With self driving it takes longer for the one individual to learn, but the difference is that there is only the one individual, and it need not ever die. The learning is transferable between cars, regressions between generations need not be accepted. The problem of bad driving can finally be solved.

    That sounds great in theory, but in practice the technology is not there for reliable and demonstrable learning of that type.

      Given the number of different people pouring millions to billions of dollars at the problem, I think it's pretty incredible for you to be so certain that that is the case.

        People are pouring money into the problem because it isn't solved yet, which pretty much matches what I said.

  As well as he/she has a professional driver paying close attention to whatever he does. Overseeing something is a really mentally trying thing and “fsd” car drivers will not be able to do that for long times.
