I think GM is wasting their money. The talented engineers in this space are flocking to Tesla, Google and soon-to-be Apple.

  This can change imo, lyft still hasn't got a bad reputation (I live in SF and have never heard neither good or bad things about being an engineer there). Engineer culture is complex and moving, and I believe just a few very good/bad decisions can tip the scale either way.

  Who the heck wants to enter the GM tech culture?

    It's an investment and probably a board seat. I doubt GM is going to interfere with their day to day engineering decisions.

      From the article: > Daniel Ammann, president of G.M., will join Lyft’s board of directors.

  Given that those talented engineers were not trained de novo by any of those companies it is a fair bet that they joined for a potential upside and could be bought by Lyft+GM under the right circumstances. There were people willing to actually go work for Uber in this space so, obviously, anything is possible...
