What makes you say Cruise is faking? The disengagement data would suggest they're the most viable self-driving car venture behind Waymo.

Cruise has made admirable progress but with 1/3rd miles and infrastructure they are way behind Waymo. Other players have basically existed the endeavour more or less so they do get to be at #2.

The technology isn't there. There will never be self driving cars.

Cruise seems to operate like it has an unlimited reserve of money. They also have a bit of a broculture. They are hiring like wildfire.

All self driving tech is in its early days to call it “self - driving”. So it will be interesting to see how the future pans out.

May be you can indeed keep on throwing ridiculous amounts of money and something and make it work. May be not.
