What happens when steering on AP comes out of Beta?

On that day, my great grandchildren will celebrate and raise a toast while saying a few words in my honor. (it's actually written into my will)

We will throw a big party unless I’m dead. Lol

PSA: You will still have the nag with FSD.

If we get nagged to keep our hands on the wheel then it isn't FSD.

Out of beta?

It's possible driver attentiveness will be enforced by other methods for the L2 system, but if by FSD you are talking about Tesla's product with that name, driver attentiveness will be required, and it doesn't mean it isn't FSD (Tesla's product). See below; there is nothing here that says the "Full Self Driving Capability" product will necessarily remove the nags; there is no requirement for that. I think it's important for people to realize this when making their purchasing decision.

Requiring driver supervision does not necessarily mean that it won't be a useful product, have some pretty amazing capabilities, be cool, etc. Just good to have full recognition of what you are purchasing. The correct decision will depend on the person. Is it possible that at some point it will get to L3/L4/L5? Sure. But it isn't required for it to be FSD, as is clear from below.

I think it is worth mentioning that your steering setting probably affects how easy it is to exert the necessary torque to dismiss nags. If you set your steering to sport, the steering will be a bit more stiff so you may have to exert a bit stronger torque. I have my steering set to "standard" and the slightest torque is enough to dismiss the nag. I can keep a finger at the bottom of the wheel, at the 6 o'clock position, and just offer a little resistance and it is enough.

I tested this out over the weekend and can confirm that with the steering set to "Comfort" mode, only a slight torque is required. Sport Mode is my preference for driving but requires significantly more torque to silence the nag.
