Tesla continues to make good progress as the miles per human intervention (how often you need to take over) keeps improving but it is still level 2. Their vision-based neural network approach only gets better with more training data. Unlike Waymo's LiDAR systems (actually LiDAR plus vision), which only works in geo-mapped areas, Tesla's approach has the potential to work anywhere as a level 5 system. Time will tell.

To be fair, no other system has the number of miles on it that Tesla does and issues arise with those systems when they are tested to the same extent.
