During Sunday's broadcast of Super Bow LVII, a spot from The Dawn Project said Tesla's self-driving technology is built on 'woefully inept engineering' that poses a treat to pedestrians and drivers.
NHTSA is currently probing Tesla's Full Self-Driving feature and"generally does not comment on open investigations," the agency told CBS MoneyWatch in a statement Monday. What is The Dawn Project?
The Dawn Project is a California-based nonprofit that campaigns for the development of computer software that's safe for people. The organization conducts independent safety tests on power grids and water treatment plants as well as devices in the health care and transportation industries. The Dawn Project draws its funding from Dan O'Dowd, the CEO of Green Hills Software, which has developed its own vehicular self-driving software. That makes its technology a direct competitor to Tesla's proprietary self-driving system.
O'Dowd is a billionaire who built his fortune by selling customized software to Boeing, Lockheed Martin and NASA. On the Dawn Project's website, the California Institute of Technology graduate is described as the"world's leading expert in creating software that never fails.
