he's been saying this for a while now and I'm not seeing any strong evidence it's true or closer to being true.
Better than which human, is the real question. Because there's many humans that don't deserve to keep their license. Also, take that car it trained in LA and drop it in Nairobi and see what happens. Is it still better that human?

Super exciting. The question is would the world accept “better than human” results or would it expect 100% accuracy. Airplanes have been self piloting for years now. But pilots are still required by law
If it were actually better than humans, they'd likely accept it. After all Waymo and Cruise are already offering driverless rides.
