To think Tesla is doing this with just cameras is hugely impressive. With 12.4 out this week with supposedly a 5 to 10x improvement, there is only one car in this race to autonomy, and it isn't Waymo. The fact Waymo chose not to navigate the roundabout at the end shows its limitations. Tesla still has work to do, but it is taking on the much bigger challenge of driving anywhere, with the huge data lead Tesla has, and no longer being compute constrained the gap will only widen. Keep them coming Callas, These videos are great for showing the capabilities and progress of both systems.

Goes to show, you don’t need to drive like a bat out of hell to get to a destination and think you will get their sooner. Sometimes, you arrive at the same time. The critical consideration for FSD is safety and I think Tesla FSD is a considerate and safe driver. Would love to see more situations that test FSD. Maybe a drop-off to the airport with a highway driving situation or going thru town with pedestrians around. Wonder if Waymo missed the turn on the round about since it was not in the correct lane. This has to do with lane selection and planning a bit better. Waymo had to do a U-turn to correct course @ 11:52. Tesla FSD was in the correct lane and made the correct turn to go straight to the destination.

In contrast, Waymo believed that Tesla’s FSD strategy was impossible to do, besides their team were all experts in using LiDAR technology, so they are still working hard at perfecting what will never really work because it doesn’t scale, doesn’t work in the snow, costs way more to make a single taxi and way more to operate that taxi than a Tesla robo taxi will cost, and Waymo could never come close to having even a hundred thousand of those taxis.

This is exactly the video I was looking for. Thanks very much for your efforts. I appreciated the detailed voice over work too. I'm very split on which is better, as I see advantages for both. I prefer FSD in most ways, but it's really a gimmick until they can get rid of the 'supervised' label. A state of semi-autonomous is, in some ways, more complicated than autonomous. Because it allows for mistakes at the point of interface between human and machine. So the machine may disengage when it's not safe to do so or the human may be unsure if he should take over. Supervision can also be more stressful than driving, meaning nobody will pay for it. It has to be fully autonomous and safer in doing so.

Tesla is doing this without being geofenced, without emergency remote drivers and without $150,000 in specialized equipment strapped to the roof.

Excellent video! I love watching these comparisons and also the unbiased narration. I believe Tesla will ultimately win in this space, and make waymo obsolete by underpricing and over performing.

Nice comparison. I find that Waymo makes some weird pickup and dropoff choices, here in San Francisco anyway. Like looping around the block right at the beginning/end. I suspect this is for perceived safety reasons, like avoiding left turns across busy traffic, or so I don't have to cross the road. Sometimes it feels excessive (nanny state), but I presume they have good reasons. All my Waymo rides have been very impressive, Tesla may find cracking that last 10% to enable their Robotaxi quite difficult, especially if they insist on doing it without the fallback of remote supervised human input.

A few notes, got a new Model Y in Nov 2023 (2nd one) and Tesla provided a free month of FSD. It was good for the freeway but too choppy and abrupt for roadways (In in SoCal, Orange County). FSD went away with the initial trial at time of purchase. Then, the big FSD update happened around mid March and Tesla provided another free month of FSD. Totally diffferent experience! Smooth take offs and braking. Good decisions. Could go pretty much anywhere. I was skeptical in Nov but incredibly impressed in March-Apr.

How is Waymo? Lidar doesn't even work properly when in heavy rain. FSD does the same like human when there is bad visibility. Driving slower.

Maybe it's just my OCD but it was really bugging me that the lead car (Waymo) was in the bottom half of the screen. My brain kept mixing up which car I was looking at. My brain kept expecting to see the lead car on top, and then look down at the bottom half to see the trailing car (with the lead car in view).

@@lukeknowles5700 It was fine because they were on separate routes, thus no impulse to do a comparison scan of passing landmarks as the lead car passed a point vs trailing car passing same point, etc. My original point was that the top/bottom lead/trailing orientation being different from what my brain expected kept messing up my ability to do a comparison evaluation during the drive. When they were on separate paths, each car was evaluated as its own thing.

You can see the Tesla is operating fully autonomously on the screen. That never changes.

Did Waymo charge you extra when it went the wrong way?

5:36 Tesla realized its following the waymo for an extended amount of time and didn't want to look like a creep following to another being like itself, its like game recognize game kinda thing

I would choose the Waymo simply because all the spinning lidar makes it look like a vehicle from Mad Max😂😂

Honestly, I was expecting the Waymo to perform better. It works on pre-mapped road data, so it should know what each intersection looks like even before it's in sensor range. Yet Waymo chose the wrong lane in the round-about and had to make a 3-minute detour.

Compare the braking curve, though. the Tesla generally brakes and approaches cars quicker than Waymo. Tesla cannot drive like Waymo. At some point, driving becomes about those details such as safety and smoothness, and Waymo destroys Tesla in that area.

@peterhelm522 Personally, I disagree. Yes, deceleration is smoother. But it's not human smooth. Not Waymo-level smooth. It often fails to understand priority signals unless there is a lead car like the Waymo ahead of it. It decelerates aggressively to stop. It accelerates overly aggressively off stop signs. It is smoother for sure, but its deceleration curve can not meet that of Waymo with more than 20 million real and simulated miles.

"fsd supervised" fsd stands for full self driving. *full* self driving... supervised. FULL. supervised. 😂 these people man...

too many comments about tesla being better but they conveniently forget the most important fact. tesla needs someone in the drivers seat with their eyes on the road at all time to take over when something goes wrong. when there's an accident; tesla like it has done in the past will blame it on driver error. This is a BIG confidence issue that tesla has that waymo doesn't. also, one route does not make for a true comparison. tesla may work 99% of the time; but that 1% when it doesn't could mean a deadly accident where lives are lost or serious injuries occur. Truly successful self diving needs to work like a utility; it just always works, you don't even have to think about it, much less having to keep you eyes on the road.

If all US roads are like this, then driving in the US is very easy.

It will really come down to what kind of experience do you want in terms of accountability. Waymo and its insurance are fully accountable while the driver is accountable sitting behing a Tesla. We arent talking about promises for the past decade of functionality but now and beyond. Tesla has never said they will ever be accountable as owners are sitting/touching behind the wheel.

@thewatcher5822

Yet the so called cruise control performed better.

Great video and wonderful to see them head to head but I think Waymo padded the bill there a bit. lol

So with FSD V12.3.6, you should’ve been able to navigate out of the parking lot at the start of this comparison test, but there’s no doubt that Tesla is the winner because unlike WAYMO that uses this expensive LiDAR system, as well as not actually being a manufacturer of their own cars, they don’t have much of a chance of actually winning the race to autonomy in my opinion. However, having said that, I am happy to see that they’re at least in the game, but they’re not competing with Tesla, because Tesla cars can drive anywhere, at highway speeds, and under all driving conditions, so they’re going after the whole enchilada, not to just be able to drive better than the average human driver, but to far exceed the capabilities of the best human driver, which isn’t even the ultimate goal, as when it comes to traffic safety, good isn’t nearly good enough. It must be as close to perfect as we can humanly possibly make it, which is driving the number of fatal crashes down to zero, and when that happens, think about the enormous value that will unleash.

In August, a lot of people are waiting to hear about the upcoming announcement of Tesla’s launch of their Robotaxi app/car, and the unofficially named M/2 that is supposed to come in at around 25K, and so we know that Tesla requested permission, that they be allowed to test their Robotaxi service in China, and I think that they were granted that permission to do so with the stipulation that they partnered with one of the Chinese domestic car companies, and Elon said that, that company is Baidu, and that the partnership was to share the mapping data, which Tesla apparently does not possess and would have to do all of that work themselves, and so this made more, sense, for economical standpoint, and it would be much more cost-effective to just be able to tap in and share data with them, and that would also give the Chinese government confidence that they were not acting in a way that would be contrary or compromising their national security interests, which was a sticking point to allowing Tesla to self drive on China’s highways, particularly with the tension between the 2 governments continuing to ratchet up.
