> We have an example. On one hand we have Tesla FSD, using throwing more and more resources an conventional AI training in the way the bitter lesson says you must do in order to progress. On the other we have Waymo using a more traditional approach. It's pretty clear which approach is failing and the other is working - and it's not going the way the bitter lesson says it should.

As I understand the article, it is going the way the bitter lesson predicts it would - the initial "more traditional" approach generates almost-workable solutions in the near term while the "bitter lesson" approach is unreliable in the near term.

Unless you think that FSD is already in the "far" term (i.e. already at the endgame), this is exactly what the article predicts happens in the near term.
