In my opinion, Tesla does have a lead on the autonomous self driving cars but I don't think they are far ahead of the competition. According to some of my previous research, Tesla worked with a different company before going on their own for this. That other company is now working with the other car companies so Tesla has two advantages but they are not completely out of possibility advantages. It is 1)data due to their own cars and 2)any information they gained after breaking their partnership.
So Tesla is probably a few years ahead of other car companies but it is not impossible for other car companies to catch up. After all, they just rely on someone else to do the self-driving part for them.

Mobileye is certain still a player. However, all these companies have a severe disadvantage.
AI still basically rest on data and computational power.
When it comes to autonomous driving, nobody is anywhere close to Telsa. They have over a million cars on the road, with 8 cameras, each snapping 30 pictures a second. That is a ton of data that the others do not have.
Plus with Dojo which will be an AI exascale computer, they will have by far the fastest computer out there.
Thus my take is that it will be difficult for the other companies to catch up with autonomous driving.
