TBH We'll end up with slop cars because capitalism kills innovation not because of AI.

we already have slop cars. Nothing looks all that unique anymore, since fuel efficiency designated we all drive eggs and insurance companies designated we don't get fun colors. Combined with manufacturers cutting out all the dashboard customization, replaced with tablets to cut costs... nothing is fun.

You go to buy a new car, you get to choose white egg, silver egg, black egg, or tan egg. These two cars are different manufacturers 5 years apart:

AI needs to learn more about steering...

And it looks as shitty as it drives

I think it forgot the wheels. Those are just wheel shaped stands. No tires at all. The first image looks like it might just have shit clearance for the road but the later ones don't have any tires at all...

"Software-defined vehicles"? Dafuq?
