339. Regulation, Risk, and the Rise of L2++

What exactly is L2+? And what about L2++? As the industry embraces these increasingly common terms, is liability slowing the path to Level 3 automation? In this Unplugged episode of SAE Tomorrow Today, join host Grayson Brulte to explore the automation liability concerns keeping OEMs awake at night and why companies like NVIDIA, Mobileye, Qualcomm, Stellantis, and Mercedes-Benz are using terminology that isn't formally defined. As adoption accelerates and regulation struggles to keep pace, one thing is clear: that extra "plus" may just be the industry's way of navigating a self-driving future that's arriving faster than the rules can keep up.   Have your own thoughts on this topic?
