Oh god I just asked myself how much pressure is probably being put on the people who write self-driving software for cars and I kinda never want to be on a road again now.

@anthracite @otterlove There's basically a 100% chance that this is happening.

@otterlove

You have no idea what I'd vibe code. 👀

(Nothing. It's nothing. I wouldn't vibe code _anything_.)

@otterlove No, but I once met a guy who would
@otterlove a vibe coded car would be worse than a trabant lol
@jadedtwin @otterlove When it got released, it was actually quite competitive and modern. It's just if you stick to stuff for 35 years, things don't seem to get better over time.
@helge @otterlove I have cousins and friends who grew up with a trabi has their family car (one of them got their finger caught in the door once and the door broke lol). They're honestly pretty ingenious given the limitations and embargos that the DDR dealt with
@jadedtwin @otterlove I grew up with one as the family car!
But seriously, the tech was quite good when it was introduced in the 60s sth. It just didn’t evolve, like at all.
@otterlove i am pretty sure they would but would they drive one and go for a walk while everyone else drives one?

@otterlove About that…

There was once a Nazi called Musk
Who poured satellites into the dusk
He vibe coded a truck
The rich don’t give a fuck
Now the earth’s just a smoldering husk

@otterlove I think multiple companies are literally doing this.
@otterlove I have Claude and a 3D printer. You can't tell me what to do.
@otterlove
Tesla cybertruck might be close to that?
@otterlove i'm surprised OTA updates haven't resulted in ransomware on a car yet
Software update failed: Did Elon Musk remotely disable Ramzan Kadyrov's cybertruck? Russian leader feels s

Elon Musk has been accused of disabling a cybertruck that was given to Chechnya leader Ramzan Kadyrov, who has ruled with an iron fist in the region for the better part of 17 years. In a post from his Telegram account, Kadyrov claimed that the vehicle had been 'remotely disabled'.

@otterlove Actually: Yes. I would rather vibe code a car than building one only based on my limited knowledge. But on the other hand: I would probably not build a car in the first place, with or without help from an AI.

@dummzeuch @otterlove You actually wouldn't want that because when you try to do it on your own you'll fail but if you have an AI do it and it claims to have done so and you don't know how to check that so you assume that it's right...

Well you could get as far as driving down the road before you realize it never added a breaking system.

@otterlove I work in robotics, you can be damn sure AI is being used extensively.
@otterlove have you seen a modern automotive's electronic backend bus? it might as well be. 😉💀
