Blinking
Elon Musk has pulled back the latest beta of Full Self-driving software for more development. It is an admission that FSD is a work in progress and not ready for the road. He would be smarter if he pulled back the earlier edition of the software as well because it has been involved in fatal accidents. FSD is not a self-driving program despite its name. It is advanced driver assistance and drivers are supposed to keep their hands on the wheel. That some have not and have barreled into other vehicles is a warning that the software isn't ready, no matter which version is being used. A part of the communications problem is the name -- FSD. It promises too much. A name makes a difference in people's understanding. Musk will find that out if he doesn't know it already.
