No other SDC company even close to what they're achieving. Besides the humongous amount of data they're the only to deploy Level 4.

is there any waymo engineer here to comment?

      What do you mean by "deliver first"? Don't waymo, cruise, and uber all have vehicles running on the ground?

      Fully autonomous none but Waymo. The rest all have level 3 cars, which by law requires driver at the seat at all times. Waymo only not just level 4 but on public roads. The biggest challenge here is not the tech anymore but trust in their system to the point to put it out on the streets. Nobody is driving the car, there's no supervision, only humans are the passengers, think about it. Could you imagine the catastrophic shitshow if any of those cars got involved in an accident? Level 3 the driver is responsible bc they can disengage in a situation the car didn't and take control back at any point. Level 4 they made a lot of work through educating emergency services on how to deal with accidents involving their car and a way the car contacts them in case of emergencies. Whole different league. I've seen a lot of comments on SDCs but most people are oblivious about the nuances besides what they read on TechCrunch hence all the trolls and every single one of them didn't know the difference of Waymo's cars and the rest and why it's different.

      Tesla's autopilot is level 3ish, different from waymo's fully autonomous system. By law Waymo's cars don't require a driver at the seat at all times as any lvl3. Also Elon/Tesla promised NY-LA until the end of this year which it won't probably happen by the look of things. They had the opportunity but lost the momentum now. All to say by your criteria nobody deployed in "real production", neither Tesla level 3 neither Waymo 4.
