Google's doing a lot better on the whole self driving front.

At least in terms of fatalities per mile.

Google has a handful of their engineers driving around in weird-looking minicars.

Tesla has thousands of regular consumers driving all over the world in sleek sedans.

Let's see which bet pays off better in five years' time.

The weird minicars are not what they've been road testing. The ones they've been road testing for ML look like regular cars.

And they have yet to hit a pedestrian or decapitate a driver with a semi. Be real; Tesla's is basically a smarter cruise control. It can't actually deal with complicated scenarios.
