Is End-to-End the Endgame for Level 4 Autonomy?

As software becomes an increasingly important differentiator and component of autonomous driving, the term 'end-to-end' has been used to describe a new approach to autonomous driving software. End-to-end autonomous driving systems are defined by the input of raw sensor data into a deep learning model, and outputting vehicle control commands such as steering, acceleration, and braking. This represents a paradigm shift from the traditional modular software approach used in autonomous vehicles.
