I don't know, but it seems like all manufacturers are using EVs as an opportunity to experiment with user hostile software. Not sure if there's an 'analog' electric car you can get.

    Yeah it sucks, I hate everything have a sim car and internet. I hate the disclaimer agreement that starts when I drive.

    My EV knows there is an update but wants me to deliver vua usb and will not stop telling me about it. They also notify you mid drive that the T&Cs are updated, but you cnt agree while driving and csnt manually find the prompt again.

    Haven't seen them up close, but from what I gather they're trying to out-Tesla Tesla by building AI into everything (and doing it better, but I'm not a fan of this crap, whether it's from an American company, a European company, a Korean company or a Chinese company).

    Well I know LLMs are currently hated, but a quick Google seems to indicate most of their AI integration has to do with driver systems and such, which I don't believe has the same ethical issues for most people? (If you just dislike using it, I'm sure they're optional / can be disabled). Reason I ask is because I'm currently checking out what car to buy.
