I think there's still significant regulatory hurdles to overcome before it's just a flick of the switch.
I haven't ridden in a Tesla FSD. Have you ridden in a Waymo? It seems tough to compare where they're "at" without having experienced both.
I also wonder how much Waymo will have improved in the next 1-3 years. This whole field seems like the sort of thing where improvements come more rapidly as more data is acquired and data is acquired more rapidly the more vehicles come online. I could easily see a situation where Waymo masters their process and expands to hundreds of thousands of vehicles in a short period of time.
Also, while I think I do believe in the ability to do FSD well with just cameras, I wonder if there will be fringe safety benefits to using accompanying lidar that will end up winning over public perception. People seem very interested in the ability for cars to do driving more safely than humans. I feel like this conflicts, mildly, with the desire to do FSD with pure vision on the premise that humans do it with pure vision. It's a true premise, but I'm not sure it's especially marketable.
