Analysis
Autonomous vehicle readiness is a multi-dimensional challenge where different companies have optimized for different axes. Waymo's sensor-first approach yields superior safety metrics but limits scalability. Tesla's vision-only approach enables massive fleet data but raises safety questions. The industry is converging toward hybrid approaches.
