>> Automatic driving the Waymo way seems to be working. Automatic driving the Tesla way leaves a trail of blood and death.
If memory serves, Waymo's way seems to be summarised by the sentence "driver assist which we can have right now is inherently dangerous so let's go for full autonomy which we can't have for many years still".
A more accurate comparison of the two companies then might be that they are both trying to sell technology that they don't yet have (autonomous driving) and that only one of them is at least trying to develop (Waymo).
However, it should be absolutely clear that autonomous driving is currently only a promise and that this is true for every product being developed.
