    There’s a general (maybe meme-y) feeling that car manufacturers are just slapping software where they shouldn’t, and it’s shit software. One of the most recent cases is Tesla recalling several self driving cars.

    Also, getting hacked remotely because the majority is as safe as a typical IoT gadget.

      Fair enough. There are pretty pedantic processes to qualify automotive software, but these are obviously not perfect and bad quality software may still be deployed to the cars.

      However, I would not throw OEMs like Tesla and others into the same category regarding Software quality.

        I feel like Tesla especially is one that’s subject to this criticism.

      Because the “car software” that comes to people’s mind is most likely to be the infotainment system, which generally sucks, while the hard/safety critical stuff is invisible to them (and admittedly done by 3rd parties like Bosch)
