In a way Waymo is behind, they can’t scale fast enough. Their vehicles are far from optimal and expensive. When CyberCab comes around it will blow past Waymo with ease.
Imagine 2 drivers, one does something dangerous every hour, the other every 1000 hours. If you observe them for one hour, they may appear identical to you. Yet, one is 1000x better.
Because you're in the driver's seat supervising at all times? If it worked fully autonomously, you would be in the backseat.
Granted, neither can many humans. But the bar should be many times higher if the operators are relieved of liability.

Tesla’s latest FSD beat Waymo by 30 minutes. Same route and same time of day.
Just a small difference: one of them did it without a driver.
