近日，36氪对自动驾驶领域的资深专家楼天城进行了专访，探讨了Robotaxi（自动驾驶出租车）的发展前景以及AI（人工智能）在自动驾驶技术中的作用。楼天城是自动驾驶公司小马智行的联合创始人，同时也是一位在人工智能和自动驾驶领域有着深厚造诣的技术专家。
在访谈中，楼天城提到了一个引人深思的观点：“L2越厉害，就离L4越远。”这里的“L2”指的是汽车辅助驾驶系统中的第二级，即车辆可以在特定条件下自动控制方向盘和加速/减速，但需要驾驶员在必要时接管车辆。而“L4”则是指第四级自动驾驶，车辆能够在完全不需要人类干预的情况下完成驾驶任务。
楼天城解释说，L2系统的发展可能会导致人们对自动驾驶技术的信心不足，从而影响对更高级别自动驾驶技术的接受度。这是因为，当L2系统在某些场景下表现出不足时，人们可能会对L4级别的完全自动驾驶技术产生怀疑，担心其安全性。
然而，楼天城强调，尽管L2系统的完善可能会对L4级别的自动驾驶产生一定的影响，但两者并不完全对立。相反，他认为，通过AI技术的不断进步，L2系统可以逐渐变得更加可靠和智能，从而为L4级别的自动驾驶打下坚实的基础。
在访谈的最后，楼天城对Robotaxi的未来表示乐观。他认为，随着技术的成熟和法规的完善，Robotaxi将逐渐成为人们出行的一种选择。同时，AI在自动驾驶中的应用也将继续深化，推动整个行业的进步。
此次专访为公众提供了对自动驾驶技术发展现状和未来趋势的深入了解，同时也为业界提供了思考和讨论的视角。随着技术的不断发展，我们可以期待一个更加智能化和便捷的出行未来。

News Title: “L2 Progress May Pull Away from L4 Autonomous Driving: Conversation with Liao Tiancheng at 36Kr”
Keywords: L2, L4, Robotaxi
News Content:
Recently, 36Kr conducted an exclusive interview with Liao Tiancheng, a senior expert in the field of autonomous driving, to discuss the prospects for Robotaxi (autonomous taxis) and the role of AI (artificial intelligence) in autonomous driving technology. Liao Tiancheng is a co-founder of autonomous driving company Xiaomazhiying and a technical expert with profound expertise in the fields of artificial intelligence and autonomous driving.
During the interview, Liao Tiancheng shared an insightful perspective: “The more powerful L2 is, the farther it may be from L4.” Here, “L2” refers to the second level of automotive assisted driving systems, where vehicles can automatically control the steering and acceleration/deceleration under specific conditions, but require drivers to take over when necessary. On the other hand, “L4” refers to the fourth level of autonomous driving, where vehicles can complete driving tasks without any human intervention.
Liao Tiancheng explained that the development of L2 systems could lead to a lack of confidence in autonomous driving technology, affecting the acceptance of higher-level autonomous driving technologies. This is because when L2 systems perform inadequately in certain scenarios, people may doubt the safety of L4-level fully autonomous driving technology.
However, Liao Tiancheng emphasized that while the perfection of L2 systems may have an impact on L4-level autonomous driving, the two are not entirely opposed. Instead, he believes that through the continuous progress of AI technology, L2 systems can gradually become more reliable and intelligent, thereby laying a solid foundation for L4-level autonomous driving.
In the final part of the interview, Liao Tiancheng expressed optimism about the future of Robotaxi. He believes that as technology matures and regulations are perfected, Robotaxi will gradually become an option for people’s travel. At the same time, the application of AI in autonomous driving will continue to deepen, driving the progress of the entire industry.
This interview provides the public with a deep understanding of the current state and future trends of autonomous driving technology, as well as providing industry perspectives for thinking and discussion. As technology continues to develop, we can look forward to a more intelligent and convenient future of travel.
