I agree, this is the very least they should be doing if they're determined to unleash a beta product that can kill people onto the non-consenting public. My solution in the meantime is to treat every Tesla driver I encounter on the road as if they're drunk.
Whenever there's a problem with FSD, Tesla is quick to point out that "it's only a beta" as if it's only the car owner's concern and responsibility for choosing to opt-in to a beta test. As someone who has to share the road with beta testers and beta products, I never got to opt in or out to being tested on like a guinea pig.
Truthfully, it should be illegal for companies to externalize their own beta testing on to the public when it comes to products that can kill and maim. It blows my mind because driving itself is highly regulated as it is, yet this is given a pass by regulators.
If you want to train your ‘beta’ neural network because it isn’t ready yet, use a fucking lab. I, as a non-Tesla car driver, did not sign up to be around cars that are using buggy and potentially dangerous technology. I have no idea why the NHSTA isn't clamping down hard on this.
Yes, I know I will get downvoted by Tesla apologists. I have nothing against making strides in technology, but a technology like this which is nowhere near Level 4 FSD, let alone Level 5, should not be distributed so widely without it being regulated and deemed safe for ALL drivers on the road (and pedestrians, animals, properties, etc).
