    "excerpt": "In this article DETROIT - What's the best advanced driver-assistance system on the market? Ask Rivian Automotive 's new artificial intelligence and it will say its creator. \"Rivian's is truly exceptional … an unmatched blend of safety and technology,\" the chatbot told me during hourslong drives in one of its R1T pickup trucks in which the vehicle largely controlled itself on several Midwest highways. While the Rivian AI bot may be biased, that's exactly the company's goal with a new generation of vehicle software and technologies: to be the best. Rivian is trying to catch up to - and then surpass - Tesla 's FSD (Supervised) capabilities, but with additional safety guardrails that the Elon Musk company doesn't use. Based on recent drives totaling hundreds of miles, Rivian's Autonomy+ has surpassed legacy competitors such as General Motors ' Super Cruise with its ADAS. But it's still playing catch up to Tesla's FSD when it comes to nonhighway driving and point-to-point driving, where a vehicle is designed to navigate itself from start to finish. I drove a recent version of FSD (Supervised) v14 to compare the technology. Rivian expects to deliver point-to-point driving later this year but, for now, its system is a giant leap forward for the company compared with what it previously offered and is clearly laying the groundwork to better compete with Tesla. \"That's the next step,\"...",
