Bottom line: the Tesla completed the task in a very natural,... show more

On the eve of the Tesla Robotaxi rides tomorrow, on the way to dinner Chuck Cook Chuck Cook and I happened to get a Waymo! Chuck ordered an Uber and got my very first Waymo! Great commentary from Chuck showing where Waymo does well and doesn’t do so well.

After experiencing both Robotaxi and Waymo, Munro Live team concludes that Waymo is twitchy while Tesla Robotaxi is natural like everyday driving. Is that the same impressions from others who rode in both vehicles?

I just hailed a Tesla Robotaxi to go from East Beach Chrissy Field to Scoma’s Sausalito through the Golden Gate Bridge during the fog and rain at night (distance was 5.69 miles). Below is the price comparison of Tesla vs Uber vs Waymo. 🧵

Another 1st time experience with Tesla Robotaxi, this time with Alvaro who came in with his friend dom from Salt Lake City, Utah to give it a try! Alvaro is not very familiar with Tesla or autonomous driving, so he tried out all of the various ride hailing options here in Austin to get a good baseline for comparison. He tried a human-driven Uber, a few Waymo autonomous drives & the Tesla_AI autonomously driven Tesla Robotaxi & he has some very interesting and insightful observations! At the end of the day what did he conclude? Check it out!

What’s it like to drive in a Tesla Tesla Robotaxi at night? Here’s my 12th and final ride of the very successful worldwide debut of the Robotaxi service! I want to once again congratulate all Tesla_AI and Tesla teams on their work behind the scenes to make today such a great success and most importantly, a lot of fun! The future is now, and there is so much more to look forward to! 😎🤖🚕

Hot take: I’m in a Waymo in San Francisco for the first time in a year and Tesla FSD 14 the more comfortable driver. Waymo is way twitchier with turning/acceleration.

These people have no idea Tesla Robotaxis are about to eat Waymo’s breakfast, lunch, and dinner. 1/ Waymo loses $ on every ride. Tesla Robotaxis will be very profitable. 2/ Waymo needs expensive LiDAR and clunky sensors. Tesla uses only vision and a neural net, just like humans. 3/ Waymo has 1,500 cars. Tesla can scale to millions quickly, 8M+ vehicles is the current fleet size. 4/ Waymo isn’t vertically integrated, they rely on other automakers. Tesla builds the hardware, the software, and the AI, all under one roof. 5/ Waymo looks like a science experiment. Tesla looks like the future. By the time people start to realize what’s happening, it’ll already be too late. This will be a winner-take-all market, and I can confidently say that Tesla Robotaxis will be #1.

Former head of Tesla AI Andrej Karpathy: "I personally think Tesla is ahead of Waymo. I know it doesn't look like that, but I'm still very bullish on Tesla and its self-driving program. Tesla has a software problem and Waymo has a hardware problem. Software problems are much easier; The latest (Tesla) builds, they've made really good improvements. I'm really impressed with what the team is doing. Waymo looks like it's winning right now, but I think when we look in 10 years and who's actually at scale and where most of the revenue is coming from, I still think they're (Tesla) ahead."

Our first Tesla Tesla Robotaxi ride started with a pretty major error 😬 It attempted a left turn from the middle lane and left us stranded, exposed in the intersection. The next two rides? Remarkably smooth.

Day 3. Finished 5 Tesla Robotaxi rides, 4 Waymo rides, and 1 Uber ride. (See 39-minute edited video below.) Uber is in a tough situation. Classic innovators dilemma. Autonomous ride-hailing clearly is the future, but if Uber invites Waymo then that's working against their human drivers which will hurt Uber's recruiting ability (which they need to keep density especially in suburban areas). But if they don't welcome Waymo, then Uber is toast because people want cheaper/autonomous ride-hailing. Also, if Uber welcomes Waymo and Waymo cars increase then Waymo can just bypass Uber with their own Waymo app. Uber's only "hope" would be if multiple autonomous driving companies come online soon and Uber becomes the ride-hailing marketplace for them. But I think this is unlikely. Autonomous driving is just a really hard problem to solve, and with data and network effects. I think it's a winner-takes-most market. We'll see. But the more I take Tesla's Robotaxi, the more I think it's smoother and better than Waymo. And the more I take Waymo, the more I get pessimistic about Uber's long-term future.

I took my wife on some Tesla Robotaxi and Waymo rides. She thought the Tesla Robotaxi was smoother and more comfortable than Waymo. I think it's a combination of several things (Tesla's end-to-end neural net, orders of magnitude more human driving data than Waymo, Model Y more comfortable than Jaguar I-Pace , etc). Here's a 56-minute edited video of the rides with my wife.

Tesla Robotaxi drops us off at In-N-Out, deals with pedestrians crossing and the drive through line/traffic. Handled it perfectly. 🍔

Waymo looks like a NASA rover that got lost downtown. BYD brings the knockoff, while Tesla’s sleekness and FSD brings the future. ⚡️ In hindsight, it will be inevitable. Tesla Robotaxi for the win. Haha Yes!

This is the sad state of news these days. Today, a Waymo car crashed into another Waymo, but the media hasn't covered it at all. I've seen no articles. If this were two Tesla Robotaxis, it would be all over the news. Negative headlines against Tesla generate clicks. Ones about Waymo don’t as much, so most of the media doesn’t bother to write about it. Is this crash the end of the world? Absolutely not. But the media would certainly paint it that way if it were Tesla Robotaxis. Nonetheless, the work toward a safer driverless future presses on.
