Apparently, you missed the part where most of the vehicles also failed the
"charted" course. In other words, they failed because they were not
capable of functioning autonomously. Regardless of the notions, acting
autonomously in a 2D dynamic environment will always be easier than
operating in a 3D dynamic environment.

Euh - we were talking about taxiing - on the ground.
Now, imagine you have full control of all environmental variables. No rules
- you can do anything you want. Plough it flat, remove all obstacles, pave
it, put down wires,tapes, optical encoders every two inches - you can even
gouge a groove in it and put a pin in the nose of your vehichle if you
want.

Do you still maintain that the present state of our AI is not up to the
challenge?
