Cruise has some long videos of self driving in San Francisco. It's far better than this.

What's striking is watching the system's screen vs the real world, and seeing Tesla not detecting important things. Tesla's big problem is simply that they are not very good at building a 3D model of the world around their vehicles. They try to do it on vision alone, and, after over five years, they still can't do that reliably.




I don't follow this too closely but are you referring to company-released videos? Seems unfair to compare a compilation of bad incidents from one of many (thousands?) of users of Tesla's system to one curated by the company releasing it. I've seen a few videos of the Tesla doing 15+ minute drives without intervention too.


Tesla has marketing videos as well (and great FSD Beta videos), these videos testing Tesla try to find edge cases and the hardest places to drive where it's still allowed. There are serious bugs to fix, but that doesn't mean that Cruise doesn't have them.


I would be very surprised if Cruise had a better 3d rep. It is probably far worse and that is why they are hiding it.


They have a lidar. They already have an accurate 3D rep from the sensors


They have a startup and an unfulfilled promise. Their ADAS supercruise has no 3d view. Their self driving vehicle is no competition to tesla.


Supercruise is not the same as Cruise self driving.


> It's far better than this.

I don't know what you're referring to. Any links?
