Autonomous Vehicles in 2026: End-to-End Neural Trajectory Planning vs Modular Stacks

An authoritative autonomous vehicle systems architecture benchmark. We compare legacy modular AV stacks (Perception -> Prediction -> Planning) with end-to-end neural world models (Tesla FSD V14, Waymo), evaluating edge cases, latency, and verifiable safety guarantees.
