Mercedes launched level 3 autonomous vehicles in Germany a year or two ago I thought?

I have seen nothing that indicates that Mercedes stands a chance to catch up with Tesla.

All I have seen Mercedes do could have been accomplished by manual programming. But manual programming does not scale. Look at the progress Tesla made from FSD 11 to FSD 12. Nothing indicates that Mercedes is capable of this type of progress.

I believe Mercedes takes full responsibility for its self driving cars while Tesla will still disengage autopilot like 1 second before impact and claim it's the drivers fault? Essentially, drivers legally have to be on full alert at all times in a Tesla while they can kick back and watch a movie during the ride in a Mercedes.

Yes, now it will no longer kill 40% of school children crossing the road, but only 39%.

LOOK AT THE PROGRESS!!!1

And with FSD 34 it will be able to take the easiest highway exit ramp there is on this planet, Mountain View on HWY101, without killing you.

And what does "manual programming" even mean? Do you REALLY believe the xbox360-grade hardware in the tesla is doing AI inferencing? It's not. It's a heuristic.
