They certainly have the largest corpus of data to train their models on. All their cars reporting back all that data is an extremely valuable moat.

Is unlabeled video data in limited supply? My impression was that the limiting factor was labeled data, especially labeled video + lidar data.

Yet their cars still crash into huge stationary objects and pedestrians.

Just a small nitpick point: data is collected in the order of a GB per minute so there's no way they're reporting back even a fraction of the data gathered.
