Im gonna laugh when it turns out there’s no “Apple car”.

This is disappointing, and I'll explain why:

Prior to Trump's sanctions on Huawei, it was widely recognized that Apple led Huawei in the smartphone space, and that by extension the US led China technologically.

Well, today, Huawei has L3 autonomy on lock and estimates it'll have general L4 technology ready "before 2025." Huawei has already led specialized L4 deployments at Tianjin Port and is testing L4 technology on China's network of test roads. Huawei has partnered with MANY car manufacturers in China to deliver their self-driving package across multiple price levels... All under the foot of US sanctions.

Meanwhile, Apple has dumped billions of dollars every year into their car project and can't seem to get it off the ground, and now comes news that they'll only be at L2 in 2028? Apple isn't just lagging Huawei, Apple's lagging domestic car manufacturers like GM.
