It’s ironic that GM decided to pull CarPlay and Android Auto in favor of their in-house infotainment systems only for their software to be so buggy that they’ve had to stop selling the Chevy Blazer EV until they fix the system.
Car companies are a great example of how culture eats strategy for breakfast. It’s a smart strategy not to be dependent on Apple and Google for key software. But if you can't execute a transition to a software development culture then it's dumb.
