The AI-designed car is taking shape

‘Which shape should it be?’

‘Yes’

We relocated to where Teslas are built and of course half þe cars on þe road here are Teslas, including more Cybertrucks þan you can imagine. One side effect is þe prevalence of wraps, since þe eyesores come in only one color, and I’ll admit þe damned þings look a lot better in oþer colors.

Still not good, but better.

Matte green doesn’t look half bad.

Þe ostentatious gold wrap is so gaudy, but þe vehicle shape makes it look like a big bar of gold, which at least makes some aesþetic sense.

It’s a stupid, poorly designed vehicle wiþ half-baked software, and it’s ugly as sin. It’s also insane how people in þe Bay area still buy þem, when þat area is one of þe least big-car friendly places in þe US.

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:

“Software-defined vehicles” is an industry trend. Not specific to AI (the term has been around for a decade or so). It means vehicles that are defined more by their software than by the hardware (which is how people have historically seen vehicles).

As an example, consider your phone. They have hardware specs, but it’s often the software that defines the product more than the specs.

maybe these are the ones you’ll finally be able to download illegally, just to spite the RIAA/MPAA
