Even more cynical: to meet the newly announced 5% goal they are having a few vehicle driving around the block late at night, making right turns only in a low speed none occupied region. I hope I'm wrong and they are tremendously successful.
Stop trolling. A car that needs constant supervision is L2. Show me the plenty of evidence in the last 6 months? Oh you have none, wow. And tell me when you've ridden a driverless waymo. Oh I see you can't. Neither can 99.999% of the rest of the population. And the few that can ride don't get an unoccupied vehicle, that is reserved for the marketing stunts. You are really getting old.
I love this comment so much for various reasons. It is vacuous, lacking any remote inkling of logical thought or intelligence. You have been repeatedly corrected many times yet you keep on repeating it. This comment can literally be applied to any company and it would fit because it is a throwaway comment that does not have any insight. Keyword to remember is "intent", you were already told in the other thread.Stop trolling. A car that needs constant supervision is L2. Show me the plenty of evidence in the last 6 months?

There is no public evidence that Tesla has a L4 test vehicle
Devil's advocate: Smart Summon is just as Level 4 as Waymo's driverless vehicles. They are both remotely monitored by humans who have the ability to abort the operation of the vehicle. Only the ODD (and quality of autonomy) are different.
No it is not and the devil does not need advocating for, the devil can advocate for itself by declaring its design intent. If Smart Summon was level 4, then so is NoA, they are both monitored by humans who have the ability to abort the operation of the vehicle. Tesla makes it pretty clear it is not.Devil's advocate: Smart Summon is just as Level 4 as Waymo's driverless vehicles.

Is a farm tractor that navigates a field without any driver also level 4?
Read the link you posted.100% yes. That's literally the definition of level 4.
EDIT: Here's an example Autonomous Case IH Magnum still to feature cab
"It is repetitive work done at low speed. The tractor operates at level 3, and sometimes, when the conditions are right, the driver steps out and it continues working at level 4. Two Quadtracs then operate entirely autonomously, though someone is on hand to supervise."
But no it is not.One core development team at CNH Industrial is working on autonomous vehicles. The team has defined its own 5 levels of autonomy.
One problem I have is that the level 4 designation allows for geofencing. Thus a car that is capable of operating without a driver in a very narrow geographical area can be called L4, but it does me no good at all. It is extremely encouraging that they can accomplish what they have, but can also be misleading if the important question (important to me) is "When can I buy a car that will drive me where I want to go while I sit in the back seat?"
Will Waymo's technology extrapolate to a driverless car here on Maui? Or does achieving L4 in a given region require a hundred thousand hours of development with a safety driver to learn every local road? If the latter is the case, they can do it in a dense market but won't bother with a sparse market. So I'm encouraged by what Waymo has accomplished, but I fear it might do me no good.
Tesla's approach seems more suitable for places where the market is thin, but they've painted themselves into a corner by insisting they can achieve tomorrow's technology with yesterday's hardware. Still, for now, Tesla is the best we can buy for our own use.

An excellent example of what I was talking about: There's a huge difference between being able to back out of the garage or navigate a parking lot at 3 mph, and driving around in a city making unprotected left turns across traffic, but both are "driverless in a limited, specified geographical area." Maybe both are L4 but that would be terribly misleading. Being able to have the car back out of a garage can indeed be useful, but it's not the same as having the car drive your kids to school and then drive itself back home.
100% yes. That's literally the definition of level 4.

Smart Summon is NOT L4. SS is not performing the DDT-fallback, the owner is.
Now this is a very good question. We have yet to see anyone demonstrate what a DDT fallback scenario looks like.Have we seen a documented operational failure by a Waymo vehicle? What does a successful DDT-fallback look like?
Ladies and gentlemen, Reimer Robotics has solved level 4 autonomous driving 4 years ago.

That is not an extreme example. That falls under the SAE levels of autonomy. Navya has been testing their autonomous systems at airports since 2017, they were the same company that had a collision with another driver and had to shut down for investigation. Buses, Lorries etc. are excellent candidates for autonomous systems. A farm tractor operating in a farm does not fall under SAE category, even the NHTSA does not really regulate what happens in farms. Now if you want to operate your farm vehicle on public roads autonomously then you must meet the requirements.You're the one who asked about autonomous tractors; by SAE definitions if a tractor never travels on a road, it will never be autonomous, which is a bit of an arbitrary distinction.
If we want a better extreme level 4 example, here's a shuttle in France that travels a 1.5 km route completely autonomously on roads: Navya launches level 4 fully autonomous shuttle service in France
Smart Summon is NOT L4. SS is not performing the DDT-fallback, the owner is. So there is really no confusion because of the levels. SS is not L4. Waymo cars are L4.
So we see that if a L4 car experiences a performance-relevant system failure (also defined by the SAE) then the car should automatically on its own, turn on the hazards, maneuver the car to the side of the road, park it and summon emergency assistance.
