If you could make a virtual environment that was that good, you would have already solved the self driving problem.

I wonder if Google would be willing to pay people to add cameras to their cars to collect real world data in far larger scale.

I do believe that's the basis of Tesla's play in the space: a bet that enough cameras collecting real-world data can beat out a dedicated from-scratch self-driving system in deployment.

Whether this will work remains very much an open question.

That might be happening now already. I think Google sourced their dataset from dashcam videos uploaded to YouTubr?
