Once again, George was right. Self driving will be solved with vision alone, or it will never be solved. And solving for vision means solving for AGI.
Vision-only is very very very far behind other techniques. Cruise (the self driving company, not OP) was killed by an overzealous CEO, not by their chosen technique. Waymo drives great in SF.

One can possibly compensate for an inferior “brain” by having more kinds of data to discern meaning from.
Self driving is going the way of fusion power. Always just a couple years away. I still believe divided highway trucking between major cities with last mile handoff to humans has legs, but I wonder how much the Tesla claims have poisoned the proverbial well of a more constrained system for the foreseeable future.
2. Cruise is in the corporate penalty box for being dishonest in withholding video data from the state of CA, but that was a stupid PR move. It doesn't tell us anything about the tech, which in fact is strong.

Who is George?
In an interview some years ago (I think it was lex friedman) he was asked about Tesla and their radars etc and he said he thinks the future of self driving cars is vision only.

The former sounds like a massive (understating it probably) infrastructure investment. Trains sound better (as other comment while I was typing notes).
The latter doesn't solve the issues noted in the recent article here: https://kevinchen.co/blog/autonomous-trucking-harder-than-ri...
Am curious to hear more thoughts/insights.
This is not to be confused with Cruise the company. Super cruise is a feature in GM cars.
Does this mean people who already have Super Cruise will have it no longer work? If so I think it is unethical and false advertising to have a feature removed from something someone already owns.
Super Cruise - Hands free driving on highways Ultra Cruise - Hands free self driving cars almost anywhere
Ultra Cruise was never released.

"Ultra Cruise" is, or was going to be, a version of Super Cruise that worked anywhere.
