It's the Silicon Valley way, and it has no place in safety critical systems like cars. Ironically, Tesla is the worlds highest valued car company specifically because they pretend to be a software company. In a way they've made their testing an external cost that customers and other members of the public pay for them.
Governments (or EU) should just ban all beta software from public roads. You want to ship a feature to customers? Fine, but you'll have to take responsibility for it first. Make sure it's tested, has well understood failure modes, who's to blame if it malfunctions, etc.
