Can Waymo scale up its fleet fast enough to match Tesla?
- ra7 1y agoCan Tesla make its software autonomous enough to match Waymo?
- roman_soldier 1y agoGiven Waymo are just now able to go on the highway which Tesla's have been doing for years they are already way ahead. Waymo won't exist this time next year they can't compete on scaling and price.
- inkysigma 1y agoIf the standard for "going on the highway" is whatever Tesla is doing, then Waymo was able to go on highways in 2010 under the Chaffeur project. It turns out though that the reliability of actually being driverless is a pretty big gap and so no Tesla is not able to go the highway yet, at least not in the same sense.
- ra7 1y agoTesla can’t go on highway (or anywhere) without a safety driver or a safety monitor in the passenger seat after nearly a decade of development. Not sure I’d call that “way ahead”.
- RivieraKid 1y agoWaymo have been driving on highways 15 years ago in supervised mode. And 1 or 2 years ago unsupervised.
- TulliusCicero 1y agoTesla doesn't have an actual robotaxi fleet at all yet, they're still in the testing phase with safety drivers/monitors.
