It's a new technology which lends itself well to outrageous claims and marketing, but the analogy stands. The CEOs don't get to define the narrative or stand as strawman targets for anti-AI folks to dunk on, sorry. Elon has been repeating "self driving next year" for a decade+ at this point, that doesn't make what Waymo did unimpressive. This level of cynicism is unwarranted is what I'm saying.
