Tesla FSD cannot drive empty the way Waymo's have been able to for years. This proves Waymo's approach is much better.

I don't have strong opinion on the technology itself, but what is the price difference? How likely is it to be added to consumer vehicles? Does the technology have to stick out in every direction or can it be better hidden? Are there negative side effects to having roads too full of lidar in terms of signal congestion?

I don't know the answer to any of these but it seems like the camera based approach has some advantages to it as well. Doesn't seem that cut and dry.
