Several important differences between self-driving and smartphones:

1. Driving automation is orders of magnitude more expensive

2. Improperly-tested vehicles are much more likely to have fatal consequences, meaning a 90% perfect smartphone is OK, but 90% perfect driving software would kill people

3. It's much, much easier to clone an iPhone than Waymo hardware + software
