    Not really a race. Waymo uses LIDAR, RADAR, and cameras. Last I checked Tesla only uses cameras.

      Which is probably mostly fine in sunny weather. But fuck if FSD hasn’t scared the fuck out of me when you get weather that obstructs cameras.

        I heard that the Sun doesn’t light things up good enough at night. I heard that it is dark at night. Probably mostly stupid rumors, but lidars/etc wouldn’t harm anyway.

      Especially not a race when Waymos decide to descend upon a random cul-de-sac and gridlock themselves. :)
