I am really not a fan of how they use the term self-driving cars. They are only self-driving in very specific conditions, trained on very specific roads, and even then, they consistently fail in the United States. Pretending that the same model will work anywhere else is delusional, and no one is going to create a universal road standard just for this

Isn't the goal to eventually get actually self-driving cars, not whatever these are?

Of course the answer is yes, but it's not like you just plug a USB drive into any car, say "go there", and it just goes. In reality, artificial intelligence has to be trained on something

It's better and faster to train AI in robust simulated environments than to do it in the real world for these kinds of things.
