00:00:02.580 | Tesla's gonna win level five.
00:00:09.560 | They really are.
00:00:10.720 | - So let's talk about it.
00:00:11.920 | You think, you're focused on level two.
00:00:15.000 | Currently, currently.
00:00:17.160 | - We're gonna be one to two years behind Tesla
00:00:20.320 | getting to level five.
00:00:21.280 | - Okay.
00:00:22.560 | - Hey, we're Android, right?
00:00:23.480 | We're Android.
00:00:24.320 | - You're Android.
00:00:25.140 | - I'm just saying once Tesla gets it,
00:00:26.400 | we're one to two years behind.
00:00:27.880 | I'm not making any timeline on when Tesla's gonna get it.
00:00:29.880 | - That's right, you did, that's brilliant.
00:00:31.160 | So what do you think about this,
00:00:33.920 | the most level four companies
00:00:36.040 | are kind of just doing their usual
00:00:41.160 | safety driver, doing full autonomy kind of testing,
00:00:45.000 | and then Tesla does basically trying to
00:00:47.920 | go from lane keeping to full autonomy.
00:00:51.800 | What do you think about that approach?
00:00:53.040 | How successful would it be?
00:00:54.640 | - It's a ton better approach
00:00:56.920 | because Tesla is gathering data on a scale
00:01:00.200 | that none of them are.
00:01:01.440 | They're putting real users behind the wheel of the cars.
00:01:05.760 | It's, I think, the only strategy that works,
00:01:08.440 | the incremental.
00:01:10.680 | - Well, so there's a few components to Tesla approach
00:01:13.200 | that's more than just the incremental.
00:01:15.040 | What you spoke with is the ones, the software,
00:01:17.640 | so over the air software updates.
00:01:19.960 | - Necessity.
00:01:21.040 | I mean, Waymo crews have those too.
00:01:22.680 | Those aren't.
00:01:23.840 | Those differentiate them from the automakers.
00:01:26.040 | - Right, no lane keeping systems have,
00:01:28.160 | no cars with lane keeping system have that except Tesla.
00:01:31.000 | - Yeah.
00:01:31.960 | - And the other one is the data, the other direction,
00:01:35.960 | which is the ability to query the data.
00:01:38.080 | I don't think they're actually collecting
00:01:39.720 | as much data as people think,
00:01:40.720 | but the ability to turn on collection and turn it off.
