I want much less software in a car - or no software. Which car would that be?


view as:

You should want (good) software in cars. It's one of the core drivers of safety improvements that reduce the rate of fatalities, and the only realistic method of continuing to make cars safer.

Surely they mean userfacing/surveilling/influencing software.

I am not really sure. Fx take the number deaths by traffic in say India. More software will not change much I suppose. The ex Audi chief seems to want more spying on the user. I don't want that either. That idea seems outright wrong.

No software also means carburetors and vac lines all over the place. Might as well fly https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23945838
