Also it will be years before it is useful on city streets. A very familiar situation…Ultra Cruise has not been released yet. It looks good on paper but we don't know how it will actually perform in the real world yet.

Hopefully someone at some point will focus on making a car that doesn’t crash.
Maybe but we don't know that. Cruise obviously has autonomous driving that works well on city streets. If GM adapted that tech, they could make Ultra Cruise work well on city streets.
Making a car that never crashes is impossible.
Haven’t taken a Cruise or Waymo ride so no idea what they’re like but I assume it is pretty unpleasant. Unfortunately there are no videos addressing these aspects. Or at least I have not bothered to watch them, and I am just making broad assumptions here. No need to spend my time on that since few people seem interested in producing videos with information in them.
Obviously I am talking about preventable collisions!!! Sure. The idea is to try to eliminate preventable collisions.
There are plenty of videos of Cruise and Waymo that address the ride quality and the riders usually seem very happy. The available evidence actually suggests the majority of rides are very pleasant.
So not sure why you say that you wish someone would work on that since lots of AV companies are literally working on that now
So far we've got Cruise, Super Cruise, Ultra Cruise, and Blue Cruise. Am I missing any?
Why not make one good Cruise version? Seems like it would be easier. May be ok but from the videos I watched for highway only works ok so long as you don’t go over 80 or any curves in the road.No, you are not missing any. But Cruise is a company that does driverless cars. Super Cruise, Ultra Cruise and Blue Cruise are L2 systems. So they are not the same thing.
Interesting, but let's be clear, that (I'm pretty sure) is a view of the NN's interpretation of the Lidar output, which is quite different from the actual raw lidar data.@drtimhill Here is a Waymo video that shows the lidar view. We can see the lidar is very detailed able to make out the exact shape of vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists etc...

...When you say it can't go above 80 or any curves, which system are you talking about? GM's super cruise or Ford's blue cruise?
Went viral when Sandy Munro tested Blue Cruise on highway curves and Ford engineer called them sharp curves...When you say it can't go above 80 or any curves, which system are you talking about? GM's super cruise or Ford's blue cruise?

I was simply not understanding when you said Cruise is the company and there were 3-10 whatever versions of it. If it’s A company why would they make so many confusing variants of good to crap?yeah, I figured it was Blue Cruise but I asked the question for clarification because @Yelobird appeared to be confusing the difference cruise's. I know Blue Cruise is inferior to Super Cruise.

Cruise has only one variant: Autonomous Vehicles. It's classified as L4 with no human driver picking up rides such as in San Francisco, Austin, and Phoenix.I was simply not understanding when you said Cruise is the company and there were 3-10 whatever versions of it.

Oh you of little faith...It will launch with 2 or 3 million miles of paved roads but will expand to include all/most paved roads.
It will be interesting to see who gets there first but after all these years I have lost all faith in Elon’s FSD predictions and my concern with FSD is that the sensor suite will turn out to be inadequate. I mean we don’t even have a single radar anymore. Ultra Cruise will probably include LiDAR too in addition to radars and cameras.
