Luobo Kuaipao lawsuit is just surface; trust crisis is the real automotive-grade challenge for autonomous driving

Let me state my judgment directly: Baidu's lawsuit this time is fighting a legal battle, but the real war to win is the trust battle. Luobo Kuaipao (Apollo Go) has run millions of kilometers in Wuhan with an accident rate far lower than human drivers, yet what netizens remember isn't the data—it's the terrifying image of "being rear-ended" in that edited video. It's just like when we build smart cockpits: you implement fatigue monitoring, but users only care whether "the camera is secretly filming me"—technical safety does not equal perceived user safety.
